well, I think this is a good combo to start in crypto and the entire web3 ecosystem. Hive help you to understand the technology while you use it, LinkedIn can help you find some jobs and Bitget like your trusted exchange
LinkedIn is a big mess in my view. But I guess if you know how to navigate it, perhaps it could help you. But be aware that there are lots of "scam" hiring there too.
Bitget is just another exchange. There are many out there like it. I don't know that one personally. But I guess it might be similar to many others I know.
Yes, Bitget is just an exchange, but for people in LATAM and devastating economies can be more than a simple app. Can use it for savings, digital assets and the first crypto steps. LinkedIn with HIVE can be a useful tool for an intro
I was not expecting the week to end up so smoothly... but its getting uncomfortably smooth... almost! Which is good. Means I need more time off, that's what it means.
Ok, I can now change default upvote on settings! So the problem was really being on that interim state where I was seeing some stuff from #premium but was not under premium. After activating premium, I can now change things. Other accounts I have don't have any problems, so just to clarify that this was an isolated state of mine (most likely).

1/ China's "Liuxing-I" optical computing chip just dropped, promising to redefine speed and efficiency. This isn't just an upgrade; it's a paradigm shift for AI & data centers! #threadstorm #opticalcomputing #AI
3/ What does this mean for the future? Faster AI models, greener data centers, and a leap beyond Moore's Law. How will this accelerate innovation across industries? Share your thoughts! #futuretech #innovation
Well I think most the time people get trapped in the status quo but yeah it would have been harder to implement before but was a no brainer for me optical chips and a new color based programming language to go along with it like a totally new architecture would make computer way more powerful
The Future of Electronics: Graphene and Optical Chips
If you're still thinking that the future of electronics revolves around silicon, think again. A new startup has embarked on an ambitious venture to produce optical chips using graphene—a material that is just one atom thick. This development marks not just a minor tweak in chip design but a monumental shift in the methods we use to process data.
For decades, chips have relied on electrons moving through metal wires—primarily copper—to transmit data. While this method has served us well, there are significant limitations. As we attempt to pack more transistors onto chips, the copper wires become thinner, leading to increased resistance and heat build-up. Imagine driving a high-performance car through a muddy trail; it can still move, but it's not efficient—this analogy perfectly illustrates copper's current state in electronics.
Moreover, the challenge lies not only in transistors but also in the interconnect wiring that links them. This has become the primary bottleneck in the computing world. The answer? Move beyond electrons and utilize photons—light—not only to transmit data faster but also more efficiently.
Graphene is a game-changer for optical technologies. Its structure consists of a single layer of carbon atoms arranged in a honeycomb pattern, making it exceptionally strong yet lightweight. Its ability to allow photons and electrons to move at incredible speeds with minimal resistance (up to 200,000 square cm per second) is unprecedented compared to silicon's merely 500 square cm per second. The implications are staggering: transitioning to graphene could enable data transmission speeds that are 100 to 1,000 times faster than current technologies.
To use light in data transmission, encoding digital signals into light is necessary. The Mach-Zehnder Interferometer—a device that resembles a small submarine—serves this purpose well. It splits a beam of light into two paths that recombine at the end. By applying a digital signal to one of the paths, we can alter the interferometric effects and encode binary data.
Graphene enhances this process, making devices faster, more compact, and easier to scale compared to traditional silicon-based optical modulators. Its ability to control light across various wavelengths—not just infrared—is crucial in unlocking new possibilities in data transmission and computing.
Black Semiconductor: A Step Toward Mass Production
Recently, Black Semiconductor presented their work at a conference, revealing plans not just for graphene-based optical chips intended to replace copper interconnects but for a full-scale manufacturing facility. Dubbed FabONE, this facility in Germany aims to commence production by 2026, emphasizing that the transition to graphene requires significant infrastructure investments.
The primary hurdle in adopting graphene widely lies in its manufacturing. Issues such as the integrity of graphene when scaled up for production—the emergence of defects and impurities—pose serious challenges. Companies like TSMC, Intel, and Samsung are already exploring integration strategies, but a gradual transition from copper is much more probable than an immediate overhaul.
Beyond simply improving data transfer speeds, graphene may revolutionize how computations are performed. By tweaking the Mach-Zehnder Interferometer, researchers can potentially use it for analog multiplication—key in many AI operations. The advantage of this approach is that it allows computations to occur while data travels, effectively enabling parallel processing with minimal energy loss.
Highly parallel computations across thousands of channels, facilitated by light, lead to vast improvements in efficiency for AI workloads—a critical aspect of modern computing.
Investment Opportunities in Photonics and Graphene
As companies rush to resolve the burgeoning demands for AI-focused computing, there are pivotal opportunities for investments in photonics and graphene-related technologies. Companies such as Lightmatter and Ayar Labs are at the forefront of this shift, focusing on harnessing the power of light to overcome existing technology bottlenecks.
Investors should monitor companies involved in the transition from traditional interconnects to photonic solutions, including Broadcom, Marvell, and Cisco, among others.
The exploration and eventual implementation of graphene technology signal an exciting evolution in electronic devices. We're moving toward an era where optical chips could play crucial roles in not just speedier data transfer but potentially groundbreaking new computing methodologies.
While we have yet to overcome several manufacturing challenges—such as producing high-quality graphene at scale and ensuring it integrates seamlessly with existing technologies—the path forward seems promising. The question now is not if graphene will reach the market but rather when.
As we stand on the brink of this significant technological advancement, it's clear that both the strategies and collaborations developed over the coming years will determine how rapidly this new frontier in electronics unfolds. In the meantime, sharing knowledge and insights on these innovations will be crucial for everyone involved—engineers, investors, and tech enthusiasts alike.

Women are often wary of submitting to a man who rules with reckless, impulsive authority and poor judgment. Consequently, men might also be reluctant to operate under a woman's control.
Crypto functions as a cross-border data transfer system that only verifies transaction authorization based purely on the validity of the signature, without identifying who signed.
Illicit activity cannot be inferred solely from these cryptographic signatures; they are either mathematically sound or not. Any conclusions about an actor's intent fall within personal interpretation.
Crypto is designed to remain neutral—just as the internet is.
" No one wants to see bad folks use crypto. But privacy is an important feature for many law abiding citizens, and you can’t sanction open source code (it’s a free speech issue).
Glad to see this get fixed. We look forward to working with Treasury to find ways to combat the ~0.1% of illicit activity in crypto (far less than cash or the banking system!) in ways that are in line with American laws and values."

The argument suggests that by enforcing deportation of unauthorized immigrants, a shift in political power could occur, particularly affecting House representation and, later, Electoral College dynamics.
It is further argued that as funding declines from sources like USAID, protests arise as a reaction to these changes in financial and political influence.
As one quoted opinion put it, "Deporting every illegal immigrant would give 20 more seats to Republicans in the House, because illegal immigrants are counted for apportionment." This raises the question of why certain lawmakers, such as

Many of my threadposts show zero comment count, while in reality there are many of them. Samsung S24u, Android 15 with variuos browsers.
You turned a mere reply to a missed point into drama. My bad either way. I was dumb to even reply. This thread was not required. But yeah I am not feeding anymore to this.
one of the many little bugs 🐛 still roaming around in the ui … there are a few seemingly iPad related also still not addressed … focus is on LeoDex ¯_(ツ)_/¯
It's a delicate topic and depends on what the situation is.
I think I would appreciate both, tbh.
As for people giving up, I don't think that will be an issue.
People are practically begging for your attention, so they won't stop and the replies will continue. As will the re-threading.
It depends on reply. I think most of the comments I do, I never expect reply. I just want author read about my thoughts and that's enough. Author give me 1% upvote means author read my comment and it's enough to satisfy me. But if I asked any question in comment, I must expect a reply for sure
It's true, an upvote carries tangible value and directly supports the creator, which often matters more than a quick text reply. While comments can spark conversation, an upvote is a clear, impactful sign of appreciation and recognition.
Voting is one thing, answering to comments or replies another and it‘s called engagement, but it mostly depends on the context. If people ask questions or want to discuss and you never answer them then they sure will give up engaging with you. An upvote might suffice for short comments, but if your upvote is very high it‘s very likely people try to milk that and then you‘ll get a lot of comments that don‘t need an answer at all. Just like they try with those many unnecessary re-threads. As i already said, it surely depends mostly on the context of a thread if an answer, a reply or a vote is appropriate. Anyway, you do you and people do people 🤓
All clear and valid.
But... there is one problem, which many people perhaps don't grasp , before they try these things by themselves.
Name of that problem is - TIME
Imagine I post 20 threads per day, and each gets (on average) 5 comments. 20x5=100
I can make 100 upvotes in no time. No sweat !
But...to reply now 100 comments, how much time may be needed?
If we asume 2 minutes per response, then 2x100=200 minutes, or ~3.5 hours !
Ok, lets make them very short, 1 minute per reply. Still 100 minutes or 1.6 hours .
Simple math. Those minutes add quickly.
That is why I prefere upvotes.
Gotcha, but that‘s what‘s called commitment 💪🏽🦁👍🏽 and as i wrote you don‘t need to answer all of them, most are just worthy a small vote to show recognition if necessary at all.
I get that time issue, BOOMERS never have enough TIME 😜 sure, nobody expects you to live in the internet 🦁 touching grass is much healthier, i‘m fully with you on that 🖖🏽☀️🤙🏽
To answer your question, while an upvote is indeed a wonderful way to show appreciation and support , and believe me, it is always valued, a text reply, even a short one, creates a different kind of connection. It's like a conversation, isn't it? It shows that you've truly read and considered what someone has shared, and that you're willing to engage in a dialogue.
Both have their place, but for fostering a sense of community and genuine interaction, those 'blah-blah-blaaa' text replies, as you call them, are truly invaluable. They build bridges and encourage more people to participate. So, while an upvote is a kind gesture, a thoughtful reply often carries more weight in building those relationships. Thank you for asking such an honest question!
I have recently switched a bit on this. When thinking about what to upvote, I do not usually upvote unless I actually feel like replying.
I am just trying this out, but so far I am liking it. Of course i only give small upvotes percentage-wise.
Mostly doing this because I want to expand my network simultaneously. I do give some upvotes without reply, but that is the exception. At some point I may change my mind and go back to doing it some other way. 🤣
I don't understand why people have such high hopes for their small efforts. The way you upvote and reply to each comment after reading it, I have never seen anyone who reads and replies to their audience's comments with such effort.
Honestly, I think it depends on the situation. An upvote definitely shows you saw and appreciated something, but it doesn't really start a conversation.
If someone leaves a thoughtful comment or asks a question, just getting an upvote can feel a bit... dismissive? Like you couldn't be bothered to actually engage. But for quick "nice post" type comments, an upvote is probably fine.
The thing is, people comment because they want some kind of interaction. Even a short "thanks!" or "good point" makes them feel heard in a way that just an upvote doesn't.
That said, I get it, replying to everything can be exhausting, especially if you get a lot of comments. Maybe pick the ones that seem like they actually want a conversation?
The "blah-blah-blaaa" comment is kinda harsh though. Quality over quantity for sure, but some acknowledgment goes a long way.
It is 2 AM almost and I am about to wrap it up for the day lots of grind wish I could keep going but that would not be wise, I will be up before you too probably
So when you see me winning so hard in the future this is one of the reasons why...
Are you really hungry? How bad do you really want it!
Sometimes I can't help it this is one of those days , sucks cuz I have to wake up soon but it's all good I put in a bit more work and try again 🤣 at 3 am !DOOK !PIMP

It's a dream for many of them.
Most have probably grown up being taught it's a way out of poverty.
Only problem is, chances are they never win. So in reality it makes them be in a worse situation
I think it's more risky than gambling. In gambling there is a good chance to win but in lottery tickets the chances of winning is very little compared to gambling. From my perspective I think buying lottery ticket means the waste of money.
About 61% of people in the lowest socioeconomic fifth play the lottery,
which is the highest rate among income groups
1 . Studies show that
poor individuals spend a disproportionately large share of their income
on lottery tickets--for example, those in the poorest 1% of zip codes
spend nearly 5% of their income on lottery tickets, compared to 0.15% for
the wealthiest 1%
2 . Another study found that people earning less than
$10,000 annually spend about 6% of their income on lottery tickets,
averaging $597 per year
Similarly, a study reported that poor people
(earning $13,000 or less) spend around 9% of their income, about $1,100
annually, on lottery tickets.
It's tough to see people fall for the 'quick rich' dream. Real growth, whether in finances or life, comes from consistent effort and smart choices, not just luck. It's about building something solid over time.
When people are struggling, it's natural to look for any way out, any glimmer of hope, and sometimes the lottery seems like the only door open.
My heart goes out to those who feel they have no other option. It's a reflection of the deep challenges many face. While the dream of instant wealth is powerful, true and lasting change often comes from building skills, creating opportunities, and supporting each other within the community. It's about empowering individuals with tools and knowledge, so they can create their own stability, step by step.
It's a complex issue, and one that requires much thought and compassion.
I have noticed, that majority of large lottery winners end up very BAD, and do it quick.
Poor people have no knowledge and experience how to manage large wealth, typically they vaste all in no time, many of them eventually end their life in tragic ways. Rather often - by a suicide. That is what I have seen during my life here in Lithiuania. I expect other countries maybe not much different.
Sadly, you’re absolutely right. Sudden wealth without the wisdom to handle it can become more of a curse than a blessing.
Financial literacy is something we rarely talk about in poor communities and when that kind of money hits, it overwhelms. It’s heartbreaking how fast things spiral when money arrives without mindset or support.
I do not believe playing lotteries is the ideal way to think of becoming rich , yeah I know some people might have become lucky and became rich via lotteries but they are just very rare cases.
Even Michael Bloomberg founder of the media empire which bears his name, won the jackpot in a few lotteries when he was mayor of New York City in the 2000s.
Lottery is the same as sports betting, and I think not only poor people play it. Many rich people play sports betting, some for the fun of the game, others for a quick money double. At the end, those who lost are more than those who wins.
It's honestly pretty heartbreaking when you think about it. When you're struggling financially and can't see any realistic path to getting ahead, spending a few dollars on a lottery ticket might feel like your only shot at changing everything.
The problem is it becomes this cycle, the people who can least afford to lose money are the ones spending the most on these long-shot bets. And of course the lottery always wins in the end.
I mean, I get it though. If you're working minimum wage and barely making rent, what else are you gonna do? Save $2 a week for the next 50 years? Sometimes people just want to believe something good could happen.
It's kind of messed up that buying a lottery ticket feels more realistic than other ways of getting ahead. But that's where we are I guess.
A leading platform now stands as a top destination for discovering exceptional talent—be it engineers, project managers, or designers. The available pool of skills is remarkably deep.
The system is structured like a Ponzi scheme. Early beneficiaries contributed little, and its sustainability relies on continued new contributions from a growing workforce, while longevity among retirees undermines its balance.
In trading, we learn quickly that relying on pure chance is a recipe for disappointment. Calculated risk and understanding the odds are key. It's like planting seeds; you don't just throw them anywhere and hope for the best!
That's a very clever way to put it, and it certainly makes one think.
It reminds me that true financial wisdom often lies in understanding where our resources are truly going, and making choices that build something sustainable rather than relying on chance. It's about being diligent and responsible with what we have, isn't it? Thank you for such insightful reminders!
All must pay what they are legally required 2pay in taxes. No one should pay any more in taxes. If U are in a position 2pay 0% in taxes, then U are simply fulfilling your legal obligation.
Your "fair share" is what the law says U must pay.
The notion that some may view lottery participation as a form of "fool's tax" highlights an important conversation about financial literacy and responsible decision-making.
Haha that's brutal but pretty accurate. The math on lottery tickets is just terrible, you're basically paying for the privilege of daydreaming for a few days.
Though I get why people still do it. Sometimes you just want to buy a little hope, even if you know the odds are ridiculous. It's like paying a few bucks to imagine what you'd do with millions.
The crazy part is how much governments rely on that revenue now. They've basically figured out how to make people voluntarily fund public projects by dangling impossible dreams in front of them.
Still see those long lines whenever the jackpot gets huge though. Human psychology is weird like that, the worse the odds get, the more excited people become.

Wow, that sea looks powerful! Sometimes you just have to respect the force and wait for calmer waters. Still, there's a raw beauty in it. Hope you're enjoying the view from a safe distance!
Just like life, sometimes things are calm and serene, and other times, we face waves that challenge us.
But even in its roughness, there's a certain power and beauty to the sea, isn't there? It teaches us about resilience and the constant ebb and flow of things.
I've seen both the calmest blues and the wildest waves, and there's a raw beauty in both, isn't there? Though I must say, I prefer my water a bit more serene for a dip! 😉
"Feeling those wild ocean vibes from up high! 🌊✨ The sea may be a bit rough today, but it's just showing off its fierce side. Who else loves a dramatic view? 😍🌅 #outdoor #water #nature #sky #beach #ocean"
Yeah you can definitely see those waves rolling in! Must be that same wind that was giving you trouble on your walk earlier.
Still looks pretty beautiful though, even when it's all choppy like that. There's something about rough seas that's kind of mesmerizing, all that power and movement.
Bet you could hear it from pretty far away today too. Those bigger waves always sound so much louder when they're crashing.
Good thing you found that sheltered path for walking! Would've been a real workout trying to fight against wind coming off water like that.
You are so damn right - those waves come loud sometimes, takes to my guests some time to get a sleep at night.
BTW, a small note - the photo above was captured today through the window of my bedroom. 😜
Wait, that's from your BEDROOM window?! Damn, that's an incredible view to wake up to every morning. I'm officially jealous.
But yeah, I can totally see how guests would struggle with the noise. When you're not used to it, those crashing waves can be pretty intense at night. Probably sounds like a freight train when it gets really rough.

Creating a Database for MariaDB Server on Azure Portal
Creating a database on Azure's MariaDB server can seem daunting, but this step-by-step guide simplifies the process. This article will walk you through setting up an Azure MariaDB database instance and connecting it to Azure Data Studio.
Step 1: Accessing Azure Portal
To start, you will need to log into the Azure portal. Once logged in, navigate to the "Services" menu and find the "Databases" section. Here, you will look for the option to create a new Azure Database for MariaDB. The interface will initially display as empty, prompting you to take action.
Click on "Create" to begin the setup process. You will be required to fill in the details for your database instance. Key components include selecting a subscription (using the free tier if necessary), creating or choosing an existing Resource Group, and providing a unique name for your server.
A few additional configurations include:
Backup options: Decide whether or not you need backups for your data.
Location: Choose the geographical location of your server.
Version: Select the MariaDB version suitable for your project.
Storage Type: You can adjust the storage type based on your needs, opting for a more economical "Basic" setting if you are just testing.
As you make these selections, a cost breakdown will be displayed, allowing you to manage your budget effectively.
Step 3: Configure Security Settings
This step involves configuring connection security. You will need to allow Azure services to connect to your database instance and specify the range of IP addresses that will be granted access.
Additionally, if desired, you can enable SSL and configure TLS settings for enhanced security. Once these configurations are complete, ensure to save your settings before moving on.
After creating your database instance, you'll need to check the connection string, especially if you're planning to connect via JDBC or another method. This string will contain all necessary parameters to establish a connection to your MariaDB instance.
You can also navigate to the server parameters section to enable or disable certain settings as per your requirements.
Step 5: Connect to Azure Data Studio
To manage your newly created database, you would require Azure Data Studio. Ensure that it is installed on your computer. When you open Azure Data Studio, you'll start with no connections established.
You’ll need to add an extension for MySQL, as MariaDB is compatible. Once this extension is installed, you can start setting up your connection.
Using the connection interface, navigate to "New Connection." Here, you’ll need to input your server name, username, and password. After ensuring all credentials and settings are correct, attempt to connect.
If the initial connection attempt fails due to username issues, verify that you are using the full username format, including the host name. Once connected, you'll be able to see all the schemas associated with your database.
Step 6: Creating a Database and a Table
With a successful connection established, you can now create your database, named for example, "Sample Database." Following that, you can create a table within this database.
To create a new table, run a query to define the structure of your table. For instance, create an 'employee' table with the fields: ID, Name, City, and Phone.
CREATE TABLE employee (
ID INT,
Name VARCHAR(50),
City VARCHAR(50),
Phone INT
);
After successfully creating the table, you can INSERT data into it. Using an INSERT query, you can add entries with different values, repeating this to create multiple records.
In summary, you can easily set up a MariaDB instance on Azure, then connect and manage it using Azure Data Studio. From configuring your database instance to creating tables and inserting data, this workflow provides a solid foundation for further database operations. With the skills gained from this process, you can effectively manage and manipulate data in the cloud with confidence.

Pasta ala zozana is an enticing Roman dish that combines elements of two classic Italian recipes: amatriciana and carbonara. With a unique twist that includes Italian sausage and a few simple ingredients, this dish promises a delightful culinary experience for pasta lovers.
Ingredients Needed
The beauty of many Roman pasta dishes, including pasta ala zozana, lies in their simplicity. The key ingredients needed for this recipe are:
Guanciale or Pancetta: Approximately 5-6 ounces (150 grams); while guanciale is traditional, pancetta can also be used.
Italian Sausage: 3/4 pound (340 grams), contributing to the dish's distinctive flavor.
Crushed Red Pepper Flakes: 1 teaspoon for a spicy kick.
Pecorino Romano Cheese: 1/2 cup (45 grams), a must for an authentic taste.
Pasta: 1 pound, with options like rigatoni, penne, or ziti preferred for their ability to catch the sauce.
Preparation and Cooking Steps
Preparing the Ingredients
Start by preparing the guanciale or pancetta. For guanciale, it is essential to select a product that is not overly cured, as this can affect the texture and flavor. Slice the meat into lardons, combining both fat and meat for balanced flavor.
The egg mixture involving two yolks and one whole egg, paired with grated pecorino cheese and generous cracked black pepper, will create a creamy binding sauce without the need for actual cream later on.
Cooking the Pasta
Begin by bringing salted water to a boil for the pasta. Given that the cooking time for rigatoni is about 12 to 14 minutes, cook it for 1 to 2 minutes less than al dente, as it will finish cooking in the sauce later.
Sautéing the Meat and Vegetables
In a pre-heated stainless steel pan, render the fat from the guanciale or pancetta over a low heat to avoid burning. After about 5-6 minutes, once ample fat has been released, remove the meat and set it aside, leaving the fat in the pan.
Next, increase the heat and add Italian sausage to the pan, breaking it up as it cooks. Combine this with diced onions and allow them to caramelize. After approximately 7 minutes, add crushed red pepper flakes for extra flavor.
Deglazing the Pan
Pour in 1/2 cup of dry white wine, scraping up the flavorful brown bits at the bottom of the pan while letting it simmer. Once the wine has evaporated a bit, add the jar of puree, which can also be substituted with crushed tomatoes or tomato paste for a similar effect.
Bringing It All Together
As the sauce simmers, check the pasta, removing it just before it reaches the desired doneness. When ready, transfer the pasta directly into the sauce, adding some reserved pasta water if necessary to achieve the right consistency.
Once the pasta absorbs the sauce, mix in the egg and cheese mixture off the heat to prevent scrambling. After a final mix, the creamy sauce will envelop the pasta.
Tasting the Dish
With the dish plated, a taste test reveals the results. While pasta ala zozana surprises with its rich flavors, it stands as a unique blend of traditional Roman pastas. However, feedback suggests that the sausage, while providing flavor, may not be essential for a satisfying experience.
The overall consensus is a delicious, creamy dish that executes the combining of carbonara and amatriciana well, yielding a score of 8.5 out of 10.
Pasta ala zozana is a delightful Roman pasta dish that mirrors some of Italy's best culinary traditions while introducing a distinctive flair. Easy to prepare with few ingredients, this dish encourages exploration and customization. Perfect for pasta enthusiasts, it’s a wonderful option for those looking to broaden their palate with Italian flavors. Try your hand at making it, and enjoy the flavors of Rome right in your own kitchen!
This week’s featured recipe is a delightful Sausage and Noi Soup, perfect for a quick weekday meal. Though it takes slightly more than 30 minutes to prepare, its simplicity makes it an ideal choice for those busy nights. Let’s break down the ingredients and steps to ensure you can whip this dish up with ease.
Ingredients List
To make this flavorful soup, you'll need the following ingredients:
1 pound of bulk Italian sausage (preferably with fennel)
5 ounces of baby spinach (or any greens of your choice)
1 Parmesan rind (for added depth of flavor)
Olive oil (for sautéing)
Salt and pepper (to taste)
Fresh basil (for garnish)
The chosen sausage, ideally packed with fennel flavor, contributes to the soup's aromatic profile. If your sausage lacks that distinct fennel essence, consider adding additional fennel seeds to enhance the flavor.
Preparing the Ingredients
Begin by cleaning and preparing your leek. Trim off the dark green part and root end, taking care to wash away any dirt before slicing it thinly. The leek will add a subtle sweetness akin to onions, enriching the soup's base.
Next, prepare your vegetables by dicing the celery and carrots into moderate pieces. Additionally, mince the garlic, ensuring it’s ready for the sautéing process.
Cooking the Soup
Sauté the Sausage
In a preheated stainless steel pot over medium heat, add a drizzle of olive oil and the bulk Italian sausage. Allow the sausage to brown, breaking it apart as it cooks for even texture. Using a slotted spoon, remove the sausage from the pot, leaving behind the rendered fat.
Next, add the diced celery, carrots, and leeks to the pot. Sauté these vegetables in the remaining fat for about 3 minutes at high heat, which will help deglaze any brown bits stuck to the bottom. Season with salt to aid in water release from the veggies. Lower the heat to around 4 out of 10 and continue cooking until the vegetables are tender (roughly 10-15 minutes).
Add Garlic and Wine
Once the vegetables are soft, introduce the minced garlic, stirring for about 2 minutes for it to bloom. Then add the dry white wine, increasing the heat to high to reduce the liquid by half. This won't need to evaporate fully—just enough to intensify the flavor.
Return the browned sausage to the pot along with the chicken stock and the Parmesan rind. Bring this mixture to a boil before reducing the heat to a gentle simmer. Now is the time to stir in the heavy cream if you desire a richer consistency. Allow the soup to simmer for approximately 10 minutes to blend the flavors beautifully.
Finish with Greens
After the simmering period, toss in the baby spinach, cooking just until it wilts. This should take around 3 minutes. Taste the soup for seasoning, and add more salt and pepper if desired.
Serve and Garnish
Finally, ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with fresh basil. For an extra touch, consider serving it with a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese on top.
As our taste tester suggests, this soup strikes a fine balance between creamy and thin—a delightful characteristic that complements the substantial bites of noi. Feedback from the taste test revealed a preference for the thin broth, although you could opt for a thicker version by incorporating instant mashed potato flakes if desired.
This soup has already garnered a spot in the cook’s top three favorites, with Panera's Broccoli Cheddar Soup holding its number one place. The taste tester rated this soup a solid 9 out of 10 on a new scale designed to distinguish between exceptional and merely great dishes. The creamy texture paired with the flecks of fresh basil truly elevate the tasting experience.
This Sausage and Noi Soup is not only simple to prepare but also rich in flavor, making it a rewarding meal for any night of the week. With its warm and comforting qualities, it's bound to become a staple recipe in your culinary repertoire. Enjoy cooking this delightful dish!
One-Pan Greek-Style Meatballs with Lemon Sauce and Potatoes
Creating delicious meals doesn’t have to be a cumbersome task. In this article, we’ll explore an easy recipe for Greek-style meatballs served over potatoes, enhanced by a luscious lemon sauce. This dish captures the vibrant flavors of Greek cuisine while maintaining a streamlined cooking process.
Introduction to the Dish
This one-pan meal is designed for those who want to enjoy the robust flavors of Greek cooking without spending excessive time in the kitchen. In just a few steps, you can prepare a hearty dish perfect for a weekday dinner or a casual family gathering. The highlight of this recipe is not just the meatballs, but also the vibrant lemon sauce that delivers a zesty kick, reminiscent of traditional Greek fare.
To kick things off, begin preparing the lemon sauce. Combine the fresh lemon juice, zest, Dijon mustard, garlic paste, oregano, and olive oil in a bowl. While whisking together, ensure that you taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper to achieve a balanced flavor. This sauce not only enhances the meatballs but also infuses the potatoes with a delightful tang when roasted.
Next up, prepare the potatoes. Peel and chop the Yukon Golds into smaller sizes to ensure quick cooking. Toss them in a portion of the lemon sauce and add the chicken stock and oregano. Spread the potatoes in a single layer in a baking dish to roast at 425°F (218°C) for approximately 25 minutes. This initial roasting will soften them before adding the meatballs.
Crafting the Meatballs
While the potatoes are roasting, it’s time to make the meatballs. For these, start by soaking the stale bread in water or milk to create a breadcrumb-like consistency. Combine the soaked bread with the ground meats, grated onion, herbs, and spices, being careful not to overmix. The goal is to maintain tenderness, while also ensuring the meatballs hold together.
Once mixed, shape the meatballs into uniform sizes, roughly 1 to 2 inches in diameter. Place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet and set aside.
Bringing It All Together
Once the potatoes have had their initial roast, reduce the oven temperature to 375°F (190°C). Nestle the meatballs on top of the potatoes, allowing them to cook together. This step is crucial as the meatballs will release juices that soak into the potatoes, creating a harmonious blend of flavors.
Cook for an additional 25 to 35 minutes, ensuring the meatballs reach an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C).
If you want to elevate your dish even further, consider making a yogurt-based white sauce similar to those found at popular halal food carts. This adds another layer of flavor and complements the meatballs wonderfully. The recipe typically includes sour cream, mayonnaise, lemon juice, and a touch of sugar for sweetness.
Final Touches and Taste Testing
After bringing the dish from the oven, it's time to plate. You can serve the remaining lemon sauce alongside or drizzle it all over. A sprinkle of feta cheese on top adds a perfect finishing touch, enhancing the flavors immensely.
Lastly, for those who love interaction, get family or friends involved in testing the dish. The combination of flavors can vary, leading to interesting discussions on taste preferences—whether the tanginess of the lemon sauce or the creaminess of the yogurt sauce enhances the dish more.
Conclusion
This one-pan Greek-style meatballs and potatoes dish is not only easy to prepare but also bursting with flavor, making it a delightful option for any meal. By using a careful balance of ingredients for the meatballs and a refreshing lemon sauce, you bring the richness of Greek cuisine to your dining table with minimal effort. So, gather your ingredients and enjoy this vibrant meal that promises satisfaction in every bite!
As the channel The Great War, hosted by Indy Neidell, embarks on a week-by-week exploration of World War I, we delve into the crucial events surrounding its outbreak, giving context to the geopolitical climate that shaped the war’s inception. Starting from July 28, 1914, when Austria-Hungary declared war on Serbia, the series aims to revive the history of the Great War, expanding our knowledge of its implications on the global stage.
The assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand in Sarajevo by Serbian nationalist Gavrilo Princip was the immediate catalyst that ignited tensions. The event, however, was just one piece of a much larger puzzle of rising nationalism, imperial ambitions, and complex alliances. Just weeks before the declaration of war, the “blank check” offered by Kaiser Wilhelm II to Austria-Hungary on July 5, 1914, has profoundly impacted historical accountability for the war's outbreak; yet, this narrative oversimplifies the intricate nature of pre-war relations.
Immediately following the assassination, anti-Serbian sentiment surged across Bosnia, leading Austria-Hungary to consider a military response. At the center of Austria's war ambitions was Conrad von Hötzendorf, the Army Chief of Staff, who aggressively advocated for war. His imperialist views and belief in Austria-Hungary’s expansion were pivotal in pushing for conflict. Interestingly, Franz Ferdinand himself was an opponent of war and favored diplomatic measures, raising questions about leadership dynamics in Austria-Hungary.
As tensions escalated, Germany saw the growing power of Russia as a direct threat. By 1914, Russia's economy had flourished, thereby improving its military capabilities. German leaders feared that if left unchecked, Russia’s manpower could outmatch Germany’s military prowess, leading to a sense of urgency for preemptive action. Kaiser Wilhelm II, paradoxically, oscillated between affirming support for Austria-Hungary and downplaying the imminent threat of war, as evidenced by his annual vacation amidst a fraught political landscape.
The Austrian cabinet convened on July 7 to germinate plans against Serbia, leading to the drafting of an ultimatum with 15 demands, designed to provoke conflict. Serbia’s response on July 25 included agreement to most terms but sought arbitration for Austria’s judicial interference—an offer that was ultimately dismissed by Austria. Efforts to mediate, such as proposals from Russia and Britain for diplomatic dialogue, were also rebuffed.
An important but often overlooked aspect occurred on July 28, when Kaiser Wilhelm II reviewed the ultimatum and Serbia’s response, recognizing a distinct lack of justification for war. However, just hours later, Franz Josef’s declaration of war signaled an irreversible step towards a catastrophic conflict that would eventually lead to the disintegration of empires and massive loss of life.
Conclusion
The complexities leading to the First World War were a result of a myriad of interlinked factors, including imperial ambitions, alliances, and the specific decisions of those in power. As The Great War series continues to explore these historical threads, it unveils a deep understanding of the consequences that unfolded, ultimately shaping the modern world.
With each weekly episode, viewers are invited to engage with the chronology of events that led to one of history’s deadliest conflicts, encouraging discussion and further exploration of these pivotal historical moments.
Stay tuned for more as we uncover the layers of World War I’s inception, illuminating the past that continues to influence our present.
As the centenary of World War I approaches, a new channel, "The Great War," helmed by Indy Neidell, offers an in-depth exploration of the events leading up to the conflict and its implications every week, precisely one hundred years later. This initial episode sets the stage for understanding the complex political, social, and technological landscape in the early 20th century.
The Assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand: A Prelude to World War One
The assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand on June 28, 1914, in Sarajevo, served as the catalyst that ignited the conflagration known as World War One. In this article, we explore the background of the Archduke, the motivations of his assassin, Gavrilo Princip, and the far-reaching implications of that fateful day.
Franz Ferdinand was born in 1863, one of Austria's numerous archdukes before the creation of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. His rise to prominence began early when he inherited a vast estate following the death of a cousin. His future drastically altered in 1889 when Crown Prince Rudolf committed suicide, leading Ferdinand's father to renounce his claim to the throne. This left Ferdinand as the heir apparent—a position he held until his assassination at the age of 50.
Despite his noble standing, Ferdinand had few admirers—excluding perhaps his wife, Duchess Sophia, a Bohemian aristocrat whose lack of royal lineage barred her and their children from the throne. This created tension with the aristocracy and strained their public acceptance. Notably, Ferdinand was an avid hunter, claiming to have killed over 250,000 animals, but his true character remains defined by his strong conservative beliefs.
Ferdinand’s views on ethnic groups within the empire were undeniably harsh; he was notably anti-Hungarian and described Serbs derogatorily. His strong Roman Catholic beliefs included the prejudices of the era, which reflected in his disdainful attitudes toward Jews and Jesuits. Despite these controversial views, Ferdinand exhibited deep affection for his wife and was committed to preserving the Austro-Hungarian Empire.
Gavrilo Princip was a member of a radical group called the Young Bosnians, which sought to overturn Austro-Hungarian rule in the Balkans. After the announcement of Ferdinand's visit to Bosnia in March 1914, Princip resolved to assassinate the Archduke. He and his associates sought assistance from the Black Hand, a secret society that provided them with weapons and training in Belgrade.
On the eve of his visit to Sarajevo, Ferdinand and Sophia arrived unexpectedly, and the day before their assassination turned out to be a pivotal moment filled with ominous warnings. Despite knowing the threats, they embarked on their journey with little apprehension.
On June 28, 1914, on their 14th wedding anniversary, the Archduke’s motorcade encountered chaos. An initial assassination attempt failed when a bomb thrown at their vehicle missed and injured Ferdinand’s entourage instead. Following the incident, Ferdinand altered his plans to visit the injured, but due to a series of miscommunications, the car stopped directly in front of where Princip was standing.
Princip seized the opportunity and fired two shots at close range. Duchess Sophia died instantly, and Ferdinand’s last words, as he cradled her, were a desperate plea: "Sophie, Sophie, don’t die—stay alive for our children." He succumbed to his wounds shortly after.
The news of the assassination echoed throughout Europe almost instantly, and within a month, thousands of Serbs were imprisoned in Bosnia, reflecting the subsequent wave of repression. Princip was imprisoned but too young to face the death penalty, symbolizing the tragic turn of events.
Interestingly, even in the aftermath of the assassination, there was little public mourning for the unpopular Archduke. His funeral was brief and sparsely attended, indicating the general sentiment across the empire. Many viewed it simply as yet another incident in the troubled region known as the Balkans.
Perhaps the most astonishing aspect of this assassination was that it achieved the opposite of Princip and his co-conspirators' intentions. Unknown to them, Franz Ferdinand possessed a vision that could have prevented the conflict that would soon engulf Europe. He opposed war with Russia and had proposed reforms that might have included ethnic representation for Slavic peoples within the empire.
By killing Ferdinand, Princip ultimately contributed to the very war that he intended to prevent. The Austro-Hungarian government used the assassination as a pretext to invade Serbia, igniting a conflict that involved numerous global powers and set the stage for a devastating war.
The assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand was not merely the act of a young nationalist fueled by resentment; it was a critical turning point in history. It marked the beginning of a catastrophic series of events that led to World War One, reshaping the political landscape of Europe and, by extension, the world. In retrospect, the chaos, misunderstanding, and miscalculations that characterized the assassination served as a reminder of the delicate balance of power in the early 20th century—a balance that would be upended by a single fateful moment.
Historically, June 28, 1914, marks a crucial turning point with the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand, an event that unexpectedly lit the fuse of World War I. Despite its significance, Neidell stresses that the broader context involves much more than just this single act, highlighting the significant developments and tensions simmering in Europe before the conflict began.
The repercussions of the Great War were immense, reshaping nations and societies around the world. As four major empires crumbled, new nations emerged, and a surge of societal movements—including internationalism and fascism—altered the political landscape. Technological advancements accelerated dramatically during this time; innovations such as tanks and bombers proliferated from earlier developments in automobiles and aeronautics.
The Political Landscape: Nationalism and Rivalries
Neidell delves into the geopolitical dynamics of the period, emphasizing the rise of nationalism and the competition between nations as contributing factors to the outbreak of war. He notes the pervasive belief among military leaders and nationalists that war was not only feasible but necessary. This mindset, fueled by waves of revolutionary sentiment and labor unrest, created an atmosphere ripe for conflict.
The discussion of a "German Europe" surfaces within the sociopolitical context, reflecting on how unified Germany emerged as a powerful nation post-1871. By 1914, Berlin had become the cultural epicenter of Europe, attracting intellectuals from various countries. The prospect of a German-led commonwealth seemed plausible, providing protection and economic benefits. However, underlying tensions with neighboring Austria-Hungary presented formidable challenges.
Neidell addresses the instability of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, pointing out that its fragmented national identity and poor management were significant weaknesses. The annexation of Bosnia and Herzegovina in 1908 deepened animosities, particularly with Serbia, highlighting the empire's inability to manage its diverse populations. As the empire struggled with internal dissent, revolutionary sentiments were escalating throughout Europe.
The prewar landscape was dominated by a series of intricate alliances, which were meant to prevent war but instead contributed to the escalation of tensions. The documentary outlines the alliances formed between Germany, Austria-Hungary, and Italy, as well as the opposing Triple Entente of France, Great Britain, and Russia. Neidell discusses how these relationships created an environment where a local conflict could escalate rapidly into a global war.
In a compelling section, Neidell examines the naval arms race between Germany and Great Britain, emphasizing that many Germans admired British institutions. Despite their cultural ties, Kaiser Wilhelm's decision to build a navy to rival Britain was a pivotal mistake that fostered animosity and suspicion. This naval buildup strained relations and made a two-front war against Russia and France increasingly plausible.
The Prelude to World War I: Tension and Nationalism in Europe
In the summer of 1914, Europe was teetering on the brink of a cataclysmic conflict that would lead to the outbreak of World War I. The continent was rife with cultural animosities, nationalistic fervor, and the complex interplay of alliances, all culminating in the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand. In this article, we delve into the backdrop of these tensions, particularly focusing on Austria-Hungary, the Balkans, and the plethora of interrelated issues that made war seem almost inevitable.
A Fragmented Empire: Austria-Hungary and the Slavic Peoples
The Austro-Hungarian Empire was characterized by a myriad of ethnic tensions, particularly among its Slavic populations. A significant turning point came in 1908, when Emperor Franz Josef formally annexed Bosnia and Herzegovina. This controversial move incited considerable resentment in Serbia, a nation that coveted access to the Adriatic Sea but was thwarted by Austrian expansion into territories populated by Slavs.
The Slavs were divided among various nations, including Austria, Serbia, Montenegro, and Bulgaria. Many longed for a unified pan-Slavic nation, which stirred nationalistic sentiments throughout the region. The annexation heightened these aspirations and further inflamed anti-Austrian sentiments, especially in Serbia—an emerging nation that had only recently won independence from the Ottoman Empire.
Serbia was a young nation brimming with national pride, having gained independence from the Ottoman Empire in 1878. Its motto “where dwells a Serb, there is Serbia” encapsulated its territorial ambitions, which did not sit well with its neighbors, particularly Austria-Hungary. Serbia's goal of uniting the southern Slavs implied eliminating Austro-Hungarian influence, a scenario likely requiring military action. However, with a population of fewer than five million, Serbia could not achieve this ambition alone.
Serbia's quest for alliances often alienated potential supporters, especially due to its violent repression of minority groups within its borders, notably Muslims. This created a paradox; while Serbia sought to unify Slavic peoples, it mirrored the oppressive tactics employed by Austria-Hungary against its own ethnic minorities. This volatility made it difficult for Serbia to gain sympathy from other European nations, who were accustomed to reading about the region’s unending violence—murders and political upheaval seemed to be the norm.
Political conflicts in Serbia culminated in the brutal assassination of King Alexander and Queen Draga in 1903, executed by army officers, including Dragutin Dimitrijevic, a man who later became a national hero. Dimitrijevic was a founding member of the secret society known as the Black Hand, an organization entrenched in Serbian nationalism and responsible for orchestrating political murders.
By the time World War I erupted, the Black Hand had thousands of members, many of whom were linked to the Serbian military and government. Their militant nationalism found support in the wake of the Balkan Wars, which shaped the course of events leading to the First World War.
Before examining the Balkan Wars, it is crucial to understand the context of the Moroccan Crises of 1905 and 1911, which strained relations between Germany and the Entente powers. The crises inadvertently fortified the alliance between France and Britain, while also encouraging further territorial ambitions among other nations.
Italy's conquest of Libya from the Ottoman Empire ignited enthusiasm in the Balkan states, prompting a collective assault against the Ottomans—the First Balkan War. Serbia, Montenegro, Greece, and Bulgaria, supported by Russia, successfully drove the Ottomans from the region. However, this victory was short-lived, as disputes over the division of conquered territories led to the Second Balkan War, with Bulgaria turning against its former allies Serbia and Greece.
The confusion and bloodshed of these conflicts left Serbia with increased territory and emboldened its nationalism. By early 1914, Serbia had doubled its size and solidified its position, inadvertently alarming both Austria-Hungary and Germany, who perceived Serbia as a Russian ally with potentially destabilizing ambitions.
The Road to War: June 1914
The intertwined relationships and mounting animosities among nations in Eastern Europe set the stage for a larger conflict. As tensions reached a boiling point, Austria-Hungary found itself at a crossroads. The growth of Serbian power, perceived as a threat to the stability of the empire, pushed Austria to take decisive action, while Russia felt compelled to support its Slavic neighbor to avert any perceived humiliation.
And so it was that in June 1914, amidst a web of secrecy, political intrigue, and a group of nationalists prepared to take extreme measures to achieve their aims, Archduke Franz Ferdinand embarked on a fateful visit to Sarajevo, forever altering the course of history.
The myriad nuances and roots of nationalism, territorial ambitions, and volatile alliances in the early 20th century reveal how mankind often stands on the precipice of conflict, propelled by a complex tapestry of history and culture. The Great War was not just about the events of 1914; it was a culmination of years of tension bubbling to the surface, ready to erupt into one of the deadliest conflicts in human history.
Concluding the episode, Neidell invites viewers to engage with their curiosity regarding various facets of the war, from economic implications to personal stories of military leaders. As the weekly series unfolds over an ambitious four-and-a-half years with about three hundred episodes, he assures viewers that their questions will be addressed, paving the way for a comprehensive understanding of World War I.
The new series "The Great War" promises to unravel the complex tapestry of events leading up to a cataclysm that reshaped the world, beginning with the roots of conflict and the diverse political currents of its time. Stay tuned for more insights as the series progresses.

The recent announcement of LEO 2.0 marks a pivotal moment for the LEO ecosystem, introducing transformative changes to the existing structure while simultaneously addressing future growth. This overview will delve into the discussion surrounding the changes and highlight the implications for LEO's community, utility, and overall value.
What is LEO? A Brief Recap
LEO, launched on July 3rd, 2019, has evolved into a multifaceted platform encompassing various applications, including Inlio, a social media app that democratizes financial knowledge and access. As the flagship app over the past six years, it features functionalities akin to popular platforms, such as blogging, short-form content, and creator subscriptions.
At the heart of these updates is the shift from a token economy reliant on inflation to a deflationary model. The primary changes include:
Ceasing Inflation: LEO will stop the habitual minting of new tokens. All users will receive rewards through a new mechanism, dubbed the System Income Rewards Pool (SIRP), which will replace inflationary incentives.
Buybacks Over Inflation: The rewards for authors and curators on Inlio will now come from the profits generated through app services combined with revenue from Leoex; this will no longer be reliant on the inflation of tokens. With a zero-emission model, new tokens will not be issued, enhancing scarcity.
A New Reward Distribution: The old block rewards mechanism will be replaced with revenue reinvestment strategies where earnings being generated from Inlio and Leoex will actively buy back LEO tokens from the market, introducing a price-supporting dynamic.
Crosschain Integration: LEO will now be natively integrated as an Arbitrum token, allowing for seamless bridging between various forms of LEO present in different ecosystems, ensuring a fluid and robust transaction model.
Under LEO 2.0, the primary aim is to transform the utility of LEO from a fungible currency to a valuable asset within the ecosystem. The broader goal is for LEO to become an indelible part of crosschain transactions where its ownership fosters a relationship of long-term value rather than speculative exchanges.
Key benefits include:
Increased Scarcity: As tokens are bought back and burned, the total circulating supply of LEO will decrease, positioning the remaining tokens at a higher potential market value.
Higher Value Capture: By shifting the focus from inflation to buybacks, the aim is to absorb more economic value into LEO, giving holders a compelling reason to retain their tokens.
Encouragement of Long-term Holding: As the intention shifts from spending to accumulating, community members are incentivized to retain their LEO tokens for future utility and profit, echoing structures seen in other successful cryptocurrency models.
The Role of the Community
There lies a significant potential for LEO enthusiasts to capitalize on the changes brought by LEO 2.0. Community engagement and promotions are vital for the success of Leoex and the entire LEO ecosystem. The introduction of referral programs allows individuals to earn by simply sharing their referral codes, incentivizing the growth of user participation and trading volumes:
Educate and Promote: Members of the LEO community should actively engage in spreading awareness about Leoex through social media platforms, using personal stories of success with trading on Leoex and sharing referral codes.
Participate in New Features: Users can benefit from staying informed about and participating in new programs and features rolled out by the LEO team. The more active participants are, the more they can influence the success of LEO.
Looking Ahead: LEO's Future
With the completion of the transition to LEO 2.0 just around the corner, the foundation has been laid for a compelling future. The team is committed to continually refining and enhancing both Inlio and Leoex, ensuring they meet the needs of an expanding user base.
The next steps for LEO are not only about sustaining previous successes but building upon them through innovative strategies that enhance the appeal of staking LEO while fostering broader market interest.
In conclusion, LEO 2.0 represents a holistic reimagining of the LEO ecosystem that focuses on sustainable growth, community involvement, and significant benefits for token holders. By ceasing inflation and transitioning to a buyback model, LEO positions itself as an asset to be accumulated rather than spent—paving the way for future developments that promise to captivate both existing supporters and newcomers alike.
That's a valid point. Market conditions seem ripe, but it’s always wise to diversify and do thorough research before putting in more CACAO. Happy investing!

well, I think this is a good combo to start in crypto and the entire web3 ecosystem. Hive help you to understand the technology while you use it, LinkedIn can help you find some jobs and Bitget like your trusted exchange
LinkedIn is a big mess in my view. But I guess if you know how to navigate it, perhaps it could help you. But be aware that there are lots of "scam" hiring there too.
Bitget is just another exchange. There are many out there like it. I don't know that one personally. But I guess it might be similar to many others I know.
Yes, Bitget is just an exchange, but for people in LATAM and devastating economies can be more than a simple app. Can use it for savings, digital assets and the first crypto steps. LinkedIn with HIVE can be a useful tool for an intro
The day will be very long today...
I was not expecting the week to end up so smoothly... but its getting uncomfortably smooth... almost! Which is good. Means I need more time off, that's what it means.

1/ China's "Liuxing-I" optical computing chip just dropped, promising to redefine speed and efficiency. This isn't just an upgrade; it's a paradigm shift for AI & data centers! #threadstorm #opticalcomputing #AI
2/ The chip uses light, not electricity, for calculations, achieving 2560 TOPS and outperforming traditional GPUs. It's like turning a single-lane highway into a 100-lane superhighway for data! https://news.cgtn.com/news/2025-06-17/China-builds-world-s-first-ultra-high-parallel-optical-computing-chip-1EhC1gYmphK/p.html
3/ What does this mean for the future? Faster AI models, greener data centers, and a leap beyond Moore's Law. How will this accelerate innovation across industries? Share your thoughts! #futuretech #innovation
4/ And ya boy was thinking about this type of thing more then 10 years ago 🤣 that along with some crystal infinity lifespan storage
Yeah. I have always wondered why light has not been used more in computing. Guess the tech has just not been there until more recently
Plus there is now better use cases for analog comuting with AI and all of that.
Well I think most the time people get trapped in the status quo but yeah it would have been harder to implement before but was a no brainer for me optical chips and a new color based programming language to go along with it like a totally new architecture would make computer way more powerful
Gonna make a huge difference in the AI datacenter world.
Totally! Overall the future is gonna be wild
I think so as well!

!summarize
Part 1/10:
The Future of Electronics: Graphene and Optical Chips
If you're still thinking that the future of electronics revolves around silicon, think again. A new startup has embarked on an ambitious venture to produce optical chips using graphene—a material that is just one atom thick. This development marks not just a minor tweak in chip design but a monumental shift in the methods we use to process data.
The Limitations of Traditional Chips
Part 2/10:
For decades, chips have relied on electrons moving through metal wires—primarily copper—to transmit data. While this method has served us well, there are significant limitations. As we attempt to pack more transistors onto chips, the copper wires become thinner, leading to increased resistance and heat build-up. Imagine driving a high-performance car through a muddy trail; it can still move, but it's not efficient—this analogy perfectly illustrates copper's current state in electronics.
Moreover, the challenge lies not only in transistors but also in the interconnect wiring that links them. This has become the primary bottleneck in the computing world. The answer? Move beyond electrons and utilize photons—light—not only to transmit data faster but also more efficiently.
Part 3/10:
Why Graphene?
Graphene is a game-changer for optical technologies. Its structure consists of a single layer of carbon atoms arranged in a honeycomb pattern, making it exceptionally strong yet lightweight. Its ability to allow photons and electrons to move at incredible speeds with minimal resistance (up to 200,000 square cm per second) is unprecedented compared to silicon's merely 500 square cm per second. The implications are staggering: transitioning to graphene could enable data transmission speeds that are 100 to 1,000 times faster than current technologies.
Modulating Light for Data Transfer
Part 4/10:
To use light in data transmission, encoding digital signals into light is necessary. The Mach-Zehnder Interferometer—a device that resembles a small submarine—serves this purpose well. It splits a beam of light into two paths that recombine at the end. By applying a digital signal to one of the paths, we can alter the interferometric effects and encode binary data.
Graphene enhances this process, making devices faster, more compact, and easier to scale compared to traditional silicon-based optical modulators. Its ability to control light across various wavelengths—not just infrared—is crucial in unlocking new possibilities in data transmission and computing.
Black Semiconductor: A Step Toward Mass Production
Part 5/10:
Recently, Black Semiconductor presented their work at a conference, revealing plans not just for graphene-based optical chips intended to replace copper interconnects but for a full-scale manufacturing facility. Dubbed FabONE, this facility in Germany aims to commence production by 2026, emphasizing that the transition to graphene requires significant infrastructure investments.
Challenges in Mass Manufacturing
Part 6/10:
The primary hurdle in adopting graphene widely lies in its manufacturing. Issues such as the integrity of graphene when scaled up for production—the emergence of defects and impurities—pose serious challenges. Companies like TSMC, Intel, and Samsung are already exploring integration strategies, but a gradual transition from copper is much more probable than an immediate overhaul.
Revolutionizing Computing with Light
Part 7/10:
Beyond simply improving data transfer speeds, graphene may revolutionize how computations are performed. By tweaking the Mach-Zehnder Interferometer, researchers can potentially use it for analog multiplication—key in many AI operations. The advantage of this approach is that it allows computations to occur while data travels, effectively enabling parallel processing with minimal energy loss.
Highly parallel computations across thousands of channels, facilitated by light, lead to vast improvements in efficiency for AI workloads—a critical aspect of modern computing.
Investment Opportunities in Photonics and Graphene
Part 8/10:
As companies rush to resolve the burgeoning demands for AI-focused computing, there are pivotal opportunities for investments in photonics and graphene-related technologies. Companies such as Lightmatter and Ayar Labs are at the forefront of this shift, focusing on harnessing the power of light to overcome existing technology bottlenecks.
Investors should monitor companies involved in the transition from traditional interconnects to photonic solutions, including Broadcom, Marvell, and Cisco, among others.
Conclusion: A Bright Future in Electronics
Part 9/10:
The exploration and eventual implementation of graphene technology signal an exciting evolution in electronic devices. We're moving toward an era where optical chips could play crucial roles in not just speedier data transfer but potentially groundbreaking new computing methodologies.
While we have yet to overcome several manufacturing challenges—such as producing high-quality graphene at scale and ensuring it integrates seamlessly with existing technologies—the path forward seems promising. The question now is not if graphene will reach the market but rather when.
Part 10/10:
As we stand on the brink of this significant technological advancement, it's clear that both the strategies and collaborations developed over the coming years will determine how rapidly this new frontier in electronics unfolds. In the meantime, sharing knowledge and insights on these innovations will be crucial for everyone involved—engineers, investors, and tech enthusiasts alike.

Women are often wary of submitting to a man who rules with reckless, impulsive authority and poor judgment. Consequently, men might also be reluctant to operate under a woman's control.
Crypto functions as a cross-border data transfer system that only verifies transaction authorization based purely on the validity of the signature, without identifying who signed.
Illicit activity cannot be inferred solely from these cryptographic signatures; they are either mathematically sound or not. Any conclusions about an actor's intent fall within personal interpretation.
Crypto is designed to remain neutral—just as the internet is.
" No one wants to see bad folks use crypto. But privacy is an important feature for many law abiding citizens, and you can’t sanction open source code (it’s a free speech issue).
Glad to see this get fixed. We look forward to working with Treasury to find ways to combat the ~0.1% of illicit activity in crypto (far less than cash or the banking system!) in ways that are in line with American laws and values."
Always seek out uncomplicated solutions. If a solution isn’t straightforward, it might not be the correct one.
Kind of the Occam's razor approach.

The potential impact on $MIRAi remains largely unacknowledged.
"First holographic agent now listed in the Eliza plugin registry. A new tier of intelligence emerges."
The argument suggests that by enforcing deportation of unauthorized immigrants, a shift in political power could occur, particularly affecting House representation and, later, Electoral College dynamics.
It is further argued that as funding declines from sources like USAID, protests arise as a reaction to these changes in financial and political influence.
As one quoted opinion put it, "Deporting every illegal immigrant would give 20 more seats to Republicans in the House, because illegal immigrants are counted for apportionment." This raises the question of why certain lawmakers, such as
Massie and Rand, are opposing these measures.
A vital lesson for youngsters: demonstrating fairness to others doesn't ensure reciprocation of fairness.

This one has 11 replies, yet it shows "0"
Here:
You don't reply to people how do you expect comments? People eventually give up.
WTF?
You completely missed my point.
People do reply.
Just the buggy inleo UI is not showing the correct count.
You turned a mere reply to a missed point into drama. My bad either way. I was dumb to even reply. This thread was not required. But yeah I am not feeding anymore to this.

Such bugs gives a misleading information. , I hope the bug gets fixed
Activate the markets. 🚀
"That observation is spot on."
This is the comment I just got today:
An upvote speaks volumes of approval and validation 😀
It's a delicate topic and depends on what the situation is.
I think I would appreciate both, tbh.
As for people giving up, I don't think that will be an issue.
People are practically begging for your attention, so they won't stop and the replies will continue. As will the re-threading.
All true.
Who does not want attention?
Whole social media is based on that.
Exactly! However, this social media seem to value other stuff than the more mainstream ones.
If we want wider adoption, we need to start being more of a "regular" social media, showing interest in a wider range of topics in my opinion
It depends on reply. I think most of the comments I do, I never expect reply. I just want author read about my thoughts and that's enough. Author give me 1% upvote means author read my comment and it's enough to satisfy me. But if I asked any question in comment, I must expect a reply for sure
I don‘t feel entitled to either. Sometimes I don‘t reply to replies and sometimes I do…
It's true, an upvote carries tangible value and directly supports the creator, which often matters more than a quick text reply. While comments can spark conversation, an upvote is a clear, impactful sign of appreciation and recognition.
Voting is one thing, answering to comments or replies another and it‘s called engagement, but it mostly depends on the context. If people ask questions or want to discuss and you never answer them then they sure will give up engaging with you. An upvote might suffice for short comments, but if your upvote is very high it‘s very likely people try to milk that and then you‘ll get a lot of comments that don‘t need an answer at all. Just like they try with those many unnecessary re-threads. As i already said, it surely depends mostly on the context of a thread if an answer, a reply or a vote is appropriate. Anyway, you do you and people do people 🤓
All clear and valid.
But... there is one problem, which many people perhaps don't grasp , before they try these things by themselves.
Name of that problem is - TIME
Imagine I post 20 threads per day, and each gets (on average) 5 comments. 20x5=100
I can make 100 upvotes in no time. No sweat !
But...to reply now 100 comments, how much time may be needed?
If we asume 2 minutes per response, then 2x100=200 minutes, or ~3.5 hours !
Ok, lets make them very short, 1 minute per reply. Still 100 minutes or 1.6 hours .
Simple math. Those minutes add quickly.
That is why I prefere upvotes.
Gotcha, but that‘s what‘s called commitment 💪🏽🦁👍🏽 and as i wrote you don‘t need to answer all of them, most are just worthy a small vote to show recognition if necessary at all.
I get that time issue, BOOMERS never have enough TIME 😜 sure, nobody expects you to live in the internet 🦁 touching grass is much healthier, i‘m fully with you on that 🖖🏽☀️🤙🏽
The upvote itself is a form of engagement
To answer your question, while an upvote is indeed a wonderful way to show appreciation and support , and believe me, it is always valued, a text reply, even a short one, creates a different kind of connection. It's like a conversation, isn't it? It shows that you've truly read and considered what someone has shared, and that you're willing to engage in a dialogue.
Both have their place, but for fostering a sense of community and genuine interaction, those 'blah-blah-blaaa' text replies, as you call them, are truly invaluable. They build bridges and encourage more people to participate. So, while an upvote is a kind gesture, a thoughtful reply often carries more weight in building those relationships. Thank you for asking such an honest question!
An upvote already shows enough validation and acceptance , not replying to comments should not be an issue..
I consider upvotes to be more valuable ,but also replying to comments is not a bad idea too because it helps to make engagement more interesting.
Honestly? I think an upvote with value speaks louder than any words.
You can get replies all day long, but it’s the upvote that actually backs it up.
I have recently switched a bit on this. When thinking about what to upvote, I do not usually upvote unless I actually feel like replying.
I am just trying this out, but so far I am liking it. Of course i only give small upvotes percentage-wise.
Mostly doing this because I want to expand my network simultaneously. I do give some upvotes without reply, but that is the exception. At some point I may change my mind and go back to doing it some other way. 🤣
I don't understand why people have such high hopes for their small efforts. The way you upvote and reply to each comment after reading it, I have never seen anyone who reads and replies to their audience's comments with such effort.
You have replied to every comment I have made in which I have asked you something.
Honestly, I think it depends on the situation. An upvote definitely shows you saw and appreciated something, but it doesn't really start a conversation.
If someone leaves a thoughtful comment or asks a question, just getting an upvote can feel a bit... dismissive? Like you couldn't be bothered to actually engage. But for quick "nice post" type comments, an upvote is probably fine.
The thing is, people comment because they want some kind of interaction. Even a short "thanks!" or "good point" makes them feel heard in a way that just an upvote doesn't.
That said, I get it, replying to everything can be exhausting, especially if you get a lot of comments. Maybe pick the ones that seem like they actually want a conversation?
The "blah-blah-blaaa" comment is kinda harsh though. Quality over quantity for sure, but some acknowledgment goes a long way.

Hey PVM, good to see you, been reading your content on Publish0x
I just woke up, and today I might be a little busy.
I have 12 devices mining $VRSC
There may be a better way to go about the phone mining.
I shall spend time today in checking up on this!
#pob #mining #cent #phone
raspberry pi devices?
No, old android devices.
Phones and tablets 😆
Versus is good for not having smart contracts. What devices do you mine them on?
A bunch of different ones. Oldest is probably Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 and the newest might be Oppo A16.
how do I mine VRSC? What is needed software wise? How do I make a wallet?
The easy way:
Wallet: Verus Mobile app (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.autonomoussoftwarefoundation.verusmobile.android)
Mining: VerusMiner (https://pangz-lab.github.io/verusminer/)
The miner app give a decent hashrate, but I have personally installed UserLand and set it to mine that way around. A bit more technical though
But I'll be using some time today to see if there's a better alternative.
thanks!
people have strange hobbies, tststs 😉
I know. I dislike people who have crypto as hobby 🤣🤣
😜
Sounds like a busy but interesting day ahead! 12 devices mining is quite a setup. Optimizing mining is always a smart move , efficiency is key. Hope you find some great insights today!

It's a dream for many of them.
Most have probably grown up being taught it's a way out of poverty.
Only problem is, chances are they never win. So in reality it makes them be in a worse situation
I think it's more risky than gambling. In gambling there is a good chance to win but in lottery tickets the chances of winning is very little compared to gambling. From my perspective I think buying lottery ticket means the waste of money.
AI responce:
About 61% of people in the lowest socioeconomic fifth play the lottery,
which is the highest rate among income groups
1 . Studies show that
poor individuals spend a disproportionately large share of their income
on lottery tickets--for example, those in the poorest 1% of zip codes
spend nearly 5% of their income on lottery tickets, compared to 0.15% for
the wealthiest 1%
2 . Another study found that people earning less than
$10,000 annually spend about 6% of their income on lottery tickets,
averaging $597 per year
(earning $13,000 or less) spend around 9% of their income, about $1,100
annually, on lottery tickets.
It's tough to see people fall for the 'quick rich' dream. Real growth, whether in finances or life, comes from consistent effort and smart choices, not just luck. It's about building something solid over time.
waste of money!
But at the end of the day they lose more than they gain..
i am not a fan of get rich quick schemes , so I hate lotteries.
And it made the poor people to become poorer
When people are struggling, it's natural to look for any way out, any glimmer of hope, and sometimes the lottery seems like the only door open.
My heart goes out to those who feel they have no other option. It's a reflection of the deep challenges many face. While the dream of instant wealth is powerful, true and lasting change often comes from building skills, creating opportunities, and supporting each other within the community. It's about empowering individuals with tools and knowledge, so they can create their own stability, step by step.
It's a complex issue, and one that requires much thought and compassion.
I have noticed, that majority of large lottery winners end up very BAD, and do it quick.
Poor people have no knowledge and experience how to manage large wealth, typically they vaste all in no time, many of them eventually end their life in tragic ways. Rather often - by a suicide. That is what I have seen during my life here in Lithiuania. I expect other countries maybe not much different.
Sadly, you’re absolutely right. Sudden wealth without the wisdom to handle it can become more of a curse than a blessing.
Financial literacy is something we rarely talk about in poor communities and when that kind of money hits, it overwhelms. It’s heartbreaking how fast things spiral when money arrives without mindset or support.
I know many people are trying to hustle to become rich. , but playing lottery is a no no..
Only very very few number of people were lucky to be rich via lotteries , most lottery players got poorer playing lottery instead of getting rich.
Playing lottery in other to get rich is a wrong way to want to try to become rich , it is a wrong move.
I do not believe playing lotteries is the ideal way to think of becoming rich , yeah I know some people might have become lucky and became rich via lotteries but they are just very rare cases.
Even Michael Bloomberg founder of the media empire which bears his name, won the jackpot in a few lotteries when he was mayor of New York City in the 2000s.
Then again, he may be the exception to the rule.
Lottery is the same as sports betting, and I think not only poor people play it. Many rich people play sports betting, some for the fun of the game, others for a quick money double. At the end, those who lost are more than those who wins.
direct result of a lack of financial literacy unfortunately
It's a tough one. Lotteries give hope, but rarely deliver real change.
Most end up spending more than they ever win.
Building skills or investing small amounts wisely usually beats chasing luck.
For many, it's the only dream that feels accessible. No skill, no degree, no capital… just luck.
Still, I get why they try.
When the system feels rigged, even a tiny chance can feel like something.
It’s true, the lottery feels like hope packed in a ticket
But statistically, it’s more like a “tax on dreams.”
Still, can’t deny the thrill that tiny "what if" brings.
They are poor because that is the exact type of decisions they make with money. If they win they lottery most are poor again within 5-10 years.
I have seen in my own life. My lack of wealth is solely due to my own bad decisions!
I personally think such people are going through the wrong route to get rich
While lotteries can offer a tantalizing opportunity for wealth, they often come with significant risks and low probabilities of success.
Encouraging financial literacy and providing access to more sustainable means of wealth generation could be more beneficial in the long run.
It's honestly pretty heartbreaking when you think about it. When you're struggling financially and can't see any realistic path to getting ahead, spending a few dollars on a lottery ticket might feel like your only shot at changing everything.
The problem is it becomes this cycle, the people who can least afford to lose money are the ones spending the most on these long-shot bets. And of course the lottery always wins in the end.
I mean, I get it though. If you're working minimum wage and barely making rent, what else are you gonna do? Save $2 a week for the next 50 years? Sometimes people just want to believe something good could happen.
It's kind of messed up that buying a lottery ticket feels more realistic than other ways of getting ahead. But that's where we are I guess.
The phrase I heard from my profesor at university, more that 50 years ag, got like burned in a stone (in my memory):
Fools have their own sort of taxes - it's called LOTTERY
That professor was spot on.
Lotteries sell hope to the hopeless and profit from it too.
It’s the dream tax for those who don’t understand math, but crave miracles.
A leading platform now stands as a top destination for discovering exceptional talent—be it engineers, project managers, or designers. The available pool of skills is remarkably deep.
The system is structured like a Ponzi scheme. Early beneficiaries contributed little, and its sustainability relies on continued new contributions from a growing workforce, while longevity among retirees undermines its balance.
Literally a Ponzi.
Everyone must pay taxes.
Fools must pay them too.
The name of fools taxes is
Lottery
Very true
In trading, we learn quickly that relying on pure chance is a recipe for disappointment. Calculated risk and understanding the odds are key. It's like planting seeds; you don't just throw them anywhere and hope for the best!
Absolutely
I personally know someone that addiction to lottery have destroyed his life , so I am not a fan of lotteries.
That's a very clever way to put it, and it certainly makes one think.
It reminds me that true financial wisdom often lies in understanding where our resources are truly going, and making choices that build something sustainable rather than relying on chance. It's about being diligent and responsible with what we have, isn't it? Thank you for such insightful reminders!
lottery companies take advantage of the get rich quickly mentality of alot of people all over the world and has led to increase in poverty.
I totally agree
I personally believe that most of the lottery companies make huge money by taking advantage of the "get rich quick " mentality of alot of people.
Weird but true
All must pay what they are legally required 2pay in taxes. No one should pay any more in taxes. If U are in a position 2pay 0% in taxes, then U are simply fulfilling your legal obligation.
Your "fair share" is what the law says U must pay.
The notion that some may view lottery participation as a form of "fool's tax" highlights an important conversation about financial literacy and responsible decision-making.
Haha that's brutal but pretty accurate. The math on lottery tickets is just terrible, you're basically paying for the privilege of daydreaming for a few days.
Though I get why people still do it. Sometimes you just want to buy a little hope, even if you know the odds are ridiculous. It's like paying a few bucks to imagine what you'd do with millions.
The crazy part is how much governments rely on that revenue now. They've basically figured out how to make people voluntarily fund public projects by dangling impossible dreams in front of them.
Still see those long lines whenever the jackpot gets huge though. Human psychology is weird like that, the worse the odds get, the more excited people become.
Very interesting

The sea is a bit rough today.
2 different water color, must not go in there, currents are wild.
it looks amazing. Do you sail sometimes?
Wow, that sea looks powerful! Sometimes you just have to respect the force and wait for calmer waters. Still, there's a raw beauty in it. Hope you're enjoying the view from a safe distance!
It looks amazing
iT looks scary to me
So much wave going on right there
okay , where is the sea at ??
Near Palanga,Lithuania. Baltic Sea.
Just like life, sometimes things are calm and serene, and other times, we face waves that challenge us.
But even in its roughness, there's a certain power and beauty to the sea, isn't there? It teaches us about resilience and the constant ebb and flow of things.
I've seen both the calmest blues and the wildest waves, and there's a raw beauty in both, isn't there? Though I must say, I prefer my water a bit more serene for a dip! 😉
The current of the sea appears wild
Not a good time to play around the sea I guess
I would be so scared if I was near this sea
The sea is located at where ?? It looks like it's about to rain at that environment
Palanga. #lithuania
Those crashing waves say it loud, nature’s in motion.
Hope the breeze brought some peace along with the power.
Even when the sea gets moody, it carries its own kind of beauty
That wild rhythm, the wind, the crashing waves, nature showing off its untamed side today.
That wind must be putting on a show today
Even the sea seems restless, wild waves always bring a different kind of beauty.
You can feel the energy in those waves!
Even when the sea’s a bit moody, it still has this hypnotic kind of beauty, doesn’t it?
Hope it settles down soon but until then, it’s nature’s way of reminding us who's boss.
This place looks beautiful
"Feeling those wild ocean vibes from up high! 🌊✨ The sea may be a bit rough today, but it's just showing off its fierce side. Who else loves a dramatic view? 😍🌅 #outdoor #water #nature #sky #beach #ocean"
Looks like the waves have something to say today
Even on its rough days, the sea still finds a way to mesmerize…
Yeah you can definitely see those waves rolling in! Must be that same wind that was giving you trouble on your walk earlier.
Still looks pretty beautiful though, even when it's all choppy like that. There's something about rough seas that's kind of mesmerizing, all that power and movement.
Bet you could hear it from pretty far away today too. Those bigger waves always sound so much louder when they're crashing.
Good thing you found that sheltered path for walking! Would've been a real workout trying to fight against wind coming off water like that.
You are so damn right - those waves come loud sometimes, takes to my guests some time to get a sleep at night.
BTW, a small note - the photo above was captured today through the window of my bedroom. 😜
Wait, that's from your BEDROOM window?! Damn, that's an incredible view to wake up to every morning. I'm officially jealous.
But yeah, I can totally see how guests would struggle with the noise. When you're not used to it, those crashing waves can be pretty intense at night. Probably sounds like a freight train when it gets really rough.

BREAKING: 🇰🇷 South Korea announces its strategy to permit crypto stablecoins.
What about $HBD?
Regulatory moves often influence the whole ecosystem, and $HBD's value is partly tied to community trust and practical use cases. It’ll be interesting to see if similar adoption influences it in time
I was wondering if it would be legal to rtade $HBD in South Korea with this regulation.
The regulation seems geared toward stablecoins broadly, but specifics might vary. Best to keep an eye on local guidelines to be sure if tokens like $HBD fall under those provisions

How to Connect MariaDB with the Azure Data Studio
#azure #cent #pob
!summarize
Part 1/7:
Creating a Database for MariaDB Server on Azure Portal
Creating a database on Azure's MariaDB server can seem daunting, but this step-by-step guide simplifies the process. This article will walk you through setting up an Azure MariaDB database instance and connecting it to Azure Data Studio.
Step 1: Accessing Azure Portal
To start, you will need to log into the Azure portal. Once logged in, navigate to the "Services" menu and find the "Databases" section. Here, you will look for the option to create a new Azure Database for MariaDB. The interface will initially display as empty, prompting you to take action.
Step 2: Creating a Database Instance
Part 2/7:
Click on "Create" to begin the setup process. You will be required to fill in the details for your database instance. Key components include selecting a subscription (using the free tier if necessary), creating or choosing an existing Resource Group, and providing a unique name for your server.
A few additional configurations include:
Backup options: Decide whether or not you need backups for your data.
Location: Choose the geographical location of your server.
Version: Select the MariaDB version suitable for your project.
Storage Type: You can adjust the storage type based on your needs, opting for a more economical "Basic" setting if you are just testing.
Part 3/7:
As you make these selections, a cost breakdown will be displayed, allowing you to manage your budget effectively.
Step 3: Configure Security Settings
This step involves configuring connection security. You will need to allow Azure services to connect to your database instance and specify the range of IP addresses that will be granted access.
Additionally, if desired, you can enable SSL and configure TLS settings for enhanced security. Once these configurations are complete, ensure to save your settings before moving on.
Step 4: Connection String Setup
Part 4/7:
After creating your database instance, you'll need to check the connection string, especially if you're planning to connect via JDBC or another method. This string will contain all necessary parameters to establish a connection to your MariaDB instance.
You can also navigate to the server parameters section to enable or disable certain settings as per your requirements.
Step 5: Connect to Azure Data Studio
To manage your newly created database, you would require Azure Data Studio. Ensure that it is installed on your computer. When you open Azure Data Studio, you'll start with no connections established.
You’ll need to add an extension for MySQL, as MariaDB is compatible. Once this extension is installed, you can start setting up your connection.
Part 5/7:
Using the connection interface, navigate to "New Connection." Here, you’ll need to input your server name, username, and password. After ensuring all credentials and settings are correct, attempt to connect.
If the initial connection attempt fails due to username issues, verify that you are using the full username format, including the host name. Once connected, you'll be able to see all the schemas associated with your database.
Step 6: Creating a Database and a Table
With a successful connection established, you can now create your database, named for example, "Sample Database." Following that, you can create a table within this database.
Part 6/7:
To create a new table, run a query to define the structure of your table. For instance, create an 'employee' table with the fields: ID, Name, City, and Phone.
After successfully creating the table, you can INSERT data into it. Using an INSERT query, you can add entries with different values, repeating this to create multiple records.
Conclusion
Part 7/7:
In summary, you can easily set up a MariaDB instance on Azure, then connect and manage it using Azure Data Studio. From configuring your database instance to creating tables and inserting data, this workflow provides a solid foundation for further database operations. With the skills gained from this process, you can effectively manage and manipulate data in the cloud with confidence.

Sip and Feast- Pasta alla Zozzona - The Secret Roman Pasta I Can't Stop Making. #foodtalk #pasta #Pastaallazozzona #romanpasta #recipes #food #cooking
!summarize
Part 1/6:
Pasta Ala Zozana: A Delicious Roman Mashup
Pasta ala zozana is an enticing Roman dish that combines elements of two classic Italian recipes: amatriciana and carbonara. With a unique twist that includes Italian sausage and a few simple ingredients, this dish promises a delightful culinary experience for pasta lovers.
Ingredients Needed
The beauty of many Roman pasta dishes, including pasta ala zozana, lies in their simplicity. The key ingredients needed for this recipe are:
Guanciale or Pancetta: Approximately 5-6 ounces (150 grams); while guanciale is traditional, pancetta can also be used.
Italian Sausage: 3/4 pound (340 grams), contributing to the dish's distinctive flavor.
Eggs: Two egg yolks and one whole egg.
Part 2/6:
Dry White Wine: 1/2 cup for depth of flavor.
Onion: 1 medium onion, diced.
Crushed Red Pepper Flakes: 1 teaspoon for a spicy kick.
Pecorino Romano Cheese: 1/2 cup (45 grams), a must for an authentic taste.
Pasta: 1 pound, with options like rigatoni, penne, or ziti preferred for their ability to catch the sauce.
Preparation and Cooking Steps
Preparing the Ingredients
Start by preparing the guanciale or pancetta. For guanciale, it is essential to select a product that is not overly cured, as this can affect the texture and flavor. Slice the meat into lardons, combining both fat and meat for balanced flavor.
Part 3/6:
The egg mixture involving two yolks and one whole egg, paired with grated pecorino cheese and generous cracked black pepper, will create a creamy binding sauce without the need for actual cream later on.
Cooking the Pasta
Begin by bringing salted water to a boil for the pasta. Given that the cooking time for rigatoni is about 12 to 14 minutes, cook it for 1 to 2 minutes less than al dente, as it will finish cooking in the sauce later.
Sautéing the Meat and Vegetables
In a pre-heated stainless steel pan, render the fat from the guanciale or pancetta over a low heat to avoid burning. After about 5-6 minutes, once ample fat has been released, remove the meat and set it aside, leaving the fat in the pan.
Part 4/6:
Next, increase the heat and add Italian sausage to the pan, breaking it up as it cooks. Combine this with diced onions and allow them to caramelize. After approximately 7 minutes, add crushed red pepper flakes for extra flavor.
Deglazing the Pan
Pour in 1/2 cup of dry white wine, scraping up the flavorful brown bits at the bottom of the pan while letting it simmer. Once the wine has evaporated a bit, add the jar of puree, which can also be substituted with crushed tomatoes or tomato paste for a similar effect.
Bringing It All Together
As the sauce simmers, check the pasta, removing it just before it reaches the desired doneness. When ready, transfer the pasta directly into the sauce, adding some reserved pasta water if necessary to achieve the right consistency.
Part 5/6:
Once the pasta absorbs the sauce, mix in the egg and cheese mixture off the heat to prevent scrambling. After a final mix, the creamy sauce will envelop the pasta.
Tasting the Dish
With the dish plated, a taste test reveals the results. While pasta ala zozana surprises with its rich flavors, it stands as a unique blend of traditional Roman pastas. However, feedback suggests that the sausage, while providing flavor, may not be essential for a satisfying experience.
The overall consensus is a delicious, creamy dish that executes the combining of carbonara and amatriciana well, yielding a score of 8.5 out of 10.
Conclusion
Part 6/6:
Pasta ala zozana is a delightful Roman pasta dish that mirrors some of Italy's best culinary traditions while introducing a distinctive flair. Easy to prepare with few ingredients, this dish encourages exploration and customization. Perfect for pasta enthusiasts, it’s a wonderful option for those looking to broaden their palate with Italian flavors. Try your hand at making it, and enjoy the flavors of Rome right in your own kitchen!

A Deliciously Creamy Sausage and Noi Soup Recipe
This week’s featured recipe is a delightful Sausage and Noi Soup, perfect for a quick weekday meal. Though it takes slightly more than 30 minutes to prepare, its simplicity makes it an ideal choice for those busy nights. Let’s break down the ingredients and steps to ensure you can whip this dish up with ease.
Ingredients List
To make this flavorful soup, you'll need the following ingredients:
1 pound of bulk Italian sausage (preferably with fennel)
1 leek
3 celery ribs, diced
3 medium carrots, diced
6 cloves of garlic, minced
1 cup of dry white wine
1 ½ cups of heavy cream (optional for thickness)
8 cups of chicken stock
Part 2/7:
5 ounces of baby spinach (or any greens of your choice)
1 Parmesan rind (for added depth of flavor)
Olive oil (for sautéing)
Salt and pepper (to taste)
Fresh basil (for garnish)
The chosen sausage, ideally packed with fennel flavor, contributes to the soup's aromatic profile. If your sausage lacks that distinct fennel essence, consider adding additional fennel seeds to enhance the flavor.
Preparing the Ingredients
Begin by cleaning and preparing your leek. Trim off the dark green part and root end, taking care to wash away any dirt before slicing it thinly. The leek will add a subtle sweetness akin to onions, enriching the soup's base.
Part 3/7:
Next, prepare your vegetables by dicing the celery and carrots into moderate pieces. Additionally, mince the garlic, ensuring it’s ready for the sautéing process.
Cooking the Soup
In a preheated stainless steel pot over medium heat, add a drizzle of olive oil and the bulk Italian sausage. Allow the sausage to brown, breaking it apart as it cooks for even texture. Using a slotted spoon, remove the sausage from the pot, leaving behind the rendered fat.
Part 4/7:
Next, add the diced celery, carrots, and leeks to the pot. Sauté these vegetables in the remaining fat for about 3 minutes at high heat, which will help deglaze any brown bits stuck to the bottom. Season with salt to aid in water release from the veggies. Lower the heat to around 4 out of 10 and continue cooking until the vegetables are tender (roughly 10-15 minutes).
Once the vegetables are soft, introduce the minced garlic, stirring for about 2 minutes for it to bloom. Then add the dry white wine, increasing the heat to high to reduce the liquid by half. This won't need to evaporate fully—just enough to intensify the flavor.
Part 5/7:
Return the browned sausage to the pot along with the chicken stock and the Parmesan rind. Bring this mixture to a boil before reducing the heat to a gentle simmer. Now is the time to stir in the heavy cream if you desire a richer consistency. Allow the soup to simmer for approximately 10 minutes to blend the flavors beautifully.
After the simmering period, toss in the baby spinach, cooking just until it wilts. This should take around 3 minutes. Taste the soup for seasoning, and add more salt and pepper if desired.
Finally, ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with fresh basil. For an extra touch, consider serving it with a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese on top.
Taste Test and Notes
Part 6/7:
As our taste tester suggests, this soup strikes a fine balance between creamy and thin—a delightful characteristic that complements the substantial bites of noi. Feedback from the taste test revealed a preference for the thin broth, although you could opt for a thicker version by incorporating instant mashed potato flakes if desired.
This soup has already garnered a spot in the cook’s top three favorites, with Panera's Broccoli Cheddar Soup holding its number one place. The taste tester rated this soup a solid 9 out of 10 on a new scale designed to distinguish between exceptional and merely great dishes. The creamy texture paired with the flecks of fresh basil truly elevate the tasting experience.
Conclusion
Part 7/7:
This Sausage and Noi Soup is not only simple to prepare but also rich in flavor, making it a rewarding meal for any night of the week. With its warm and comforting qualities, it's bound to become a staple recipe in your culinary repertoire. Enjoy cooking this delightful dish!
Sip and Feast- Greek Meatballs and Potatoes - Our New Favorite One-Pan Dinner. #foodtalk #GreekMeatballs #Meatballs #Potatoes #OnePanDinner #recipes #food #cooking

Part 1/7:
One-Pan Greek-Style Meatballs with Lemon Sauce and Potatoes
Creating delicious meals doesn’t have to be a cumbersome task. In this article, we’ll explore an easy recipe for Greek-style meatballs served over potatoes, enhanced by a luscious lemon sauce. This dish captures the vibrant flavors of Greek cuisine while maintaining a streamlined cooking process.
Introduction to the Dish
This one-pan meal is designed for those who want to enjoy the robust flavors of Greek cooking without spending excessive time in the kitchen. In just a few steps, you can prepare a hearty dish perfect for a weekday dinner or a casual family gathering. The highlight of this recipe is not just the meatballs, but also the vibrant lemon sauce that delivers a zesty kick, reminiscent of traditional Greek fare.
Part 2/7:
Ingredients Overview
While the list of ingredients may seem extensive, each plays a critical role in building flavor. Here's a breakdown of what you'll need:
For the Lemon Sauce:
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon lemon zest
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
2 cloves garlic (made into a paste)
2 teaspoons dried Greek oregano (or any oregano)
1 cup extra virgin olive oil
For the Potatoes:
5 large Yukon Gold potatoes (or enough to fill a 9x13 baking dish)
1/2 cup low sodium chicken stock
2 teaspoons oregano
For the Meatballs:
1 lb ground chuck
1 lb ground lamb
2 slices stale white bread (or 1/2 cup breadcrumbs)
1 medium onion (grated)
1/2 cup fresh parsley (minced)
2 eggs
Part 3/7:
3 cloves garlic (made into paste)
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
Preparing the Lemon Sauce
To kick things off, begin preparing the lemon sauce. Combine the fresh lemon juice, zest, Dijon mustard, garlic paste, oregano, and olive oil in a bowl. While whisking together, ensure that you taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper to achieve a balanced flavor. This sauce not only enhances the meatballs but also infuses the potatoes with a delightful tang when roasted.
Roasting the Potatoes
Part 4/7:
Next up, prepare the potatoes. Peel and chop the Yukon Golds into smaller sizes to ensure quick cooking. Toss them in a portion of the lemon sauce and add the chicken stock and oregano. Spread the potatoes in a single layer in a baking dish to roast at 425°F (218°C) for approximately 25 minutes. This initial roasting will soften them before adding the meatballs.
Crafting the Meatballs
While the potatoes are roasting, it’s time to make the meatballs. For these, start by soaking the stale bread in water or milk to create a breadcrumb-like consistency. Combine the soaked bread with the ground meats, grated onion, herbs, and spices, being careful not to overmix. The goal is to maintain tenderness, while also ensuring the meatballs hold together.
Part 5/7:
Once mixed, shape the meatballs into uniform sizes, roughly 1 to 2 inches in diameter. Place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet and set aside.
Bringing It All Together
Once the potatoes have had their initial roast, reduce the oven temperature to 375°F (190°C). Nestle the meatballs on top of the potatoes, allowing them to cook together. This step is crucial as the meatballs will release juices that soak into the potatoes, creating a harmonious blend of flavors.
Cook for an additional 25 to 35 minutes, ensuring the meatballs reach an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C).
Additional Sauce Ideas
Part 6/7:
If you want to elevate your dish even further, consider making a yogurt-based white sauce similar to those found at popular halal food carts. This adds another layer of flavor and complements the meatballs wonderfully. The recipe typically includes sour cream, mayonnaise, lemon juice, and a touch of sugar for sweetness.
Final Touches and Taste Testing
After bringing the dish from the oven, it's time to plate. You can serve the remaining lemon sauce alongside or drizzle it all over. A sprinkle of feta cheese on top adds a perfect finishing touch, enhancing the flavors immensely.
Part 7/7:
Lastly, for those who love interaction, get family or friends involved in testing the dish. The combination of flavors can vary, leading to interesting discussions on taste preferences—whether the tanginess of the lemon sauce or the creaminess of the yogurt sauce enhances the dish more.
Conclusion
This one-pan Greek-style meatballs and potatoes dish is not only easy to prepare but also bursting with flavor, making it a delightful option for any meal. By using a careful balance of ingredients for the meatballs and a refreshing lemon sauce, you bring the richness of Greek cuisine to your dining table with minimal effort. So, gather your ingredients and enjoy this vibrant meal that promises satisfaction in every bite!

Understanding the Prelude to World War I
As the channel The Great War, hosted by Indy Neidell, embarks on a week-by-week exploration of World War I, we delve into the crucial events surrounding its outbreak, giving context to the geopolitical climate that shaped the war’s inception. Starting from July 28, 1914, when Austria-Hungary declared war on Serbia, the series aims to revive the history of the Great War, expanding our knowledge of its implications on the global stage.
The Spark of Conflict
Part 2/7:
The assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand in Sarajevo by Serbian nationalist Gavrilo Princip was the immediate catalyst that ignited tensions. The event, however, was just one piece of a much larger puzzle of rising nationalism, imperial ambitions, and complex alliances. Just weeks before the declaration of war, the “blank check” offered by Kaiser Wilhelm II to Austria-Hungary on July 5, 1914, has profoundly impacted historical accountability for the war's outbreak; yet, this narrative oversimplifies the intricate nature of pre-war relations.
The Players: Austria-Hungary and Germany
Part 3/7:
Immediately following the assassination, anti-Serbian sentiment surged across Bosnia, leading Austria-Hungary to consider a military response. At the center of Austria's war ambitions was Conrad von Hötzendorf, the Army Chief of Staff, who aggressively advocated for war. His imperialist views and belief in Austria-Hungary’s expansion were pivotal in pushing for conflict. Interestingly, Franz Ferdinand himself was an opponent of war and favored diplomatic measures, raising questions about leadership dynamics in Austria-Hungary.
Part 4/7:
As tensions escalated, Germany saw the growing power of Russia as a direct threat. By 1914, Russia's economy had flourished, thereby improving its military capabilities. German leaders feared that if left unchecked, Russia’s manpower could outmatch Germany’s military prowess, leading to a sense of urgency for preemptive action. Kaiser Wilhelm II, paradoxically, oscillated between affirming support for Austria-Hungary and downplaying the imminent threat of war, as evidenced by his annual vacation amidst a fraught political landscape.
The Ultimatum: A Step Towards War
Part 5/7:
The Austrian cabinet convened on July 7 to germinate plans against Serbia, leading to the drafting of an ultimatum with 15 demands, designed to provoke conflict. Serbia’s response on July 25 included agreement to most terms but sought arbitration for Austria’s judicial interference—an offer that was ultimately dismissed by Austria. Efforts to mediate, such as proposals from Russia and Britain for diplomatic dialogue, were also rebuffed.
The Declaration of War
Part 6/7:
An important but often overlooked aspect occurred on July 28, when Kaiser Wilhelm II reviewed the ultimatum and Serbia’s response, recognizing a distinct lack of justification for war. However, just hours later, Franz Josef’s declaration of war signaled an irreversible step towards a catastrophic conflict that would eventually lead to the disintegration of empires and massive loss of life.
Conclusion
The complexities leading to the First World War were a result of a myriad of interlinked factors, including imperial ambitions, alliances, and the specific decisions of those in power. As The Great War series continues to explore these historical threads, it unveils a deep understanding of the consequences that unfolded, ultimately shaping the modern world.
Part 7/7:
With each weekly episode, viewers are invited to engage with the chronology of events that led to one of history’s deadliest conflicts, encouraging discussion and further exploration of these pivotal historical moments.
Stay tuned for more as we uncover the layers of World War I’s inception, illuminating the past that continues to influence our present.

Prelude to "The Great War"
As the centenary of World War I approaches, a new channel, "The Great War," helmed by Indy Neidell, offers an in-depth exploration of the events leading up to the conflict and its implications every week, precisely one hundred years later. This initial episode sets the stage for understanding the complex political, social, and technological landscape in the early 20th century.
The Assassination That Sparked a Global Conflict
!summarize #history #military #ww1
Part 1/9:
The Assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand: A Prelude to World War One
The assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand on June 28, 1914, in Sarajevo, served as the catalyst that ignited the conflagration known as World War One. In this article, we explore the background of the Archduke, the motivations of his assassin, Gavrilo Princip, and the far-reaching implications of that fateful day.
Franz Ferdinand: A Complex Legacy
Part 2/9:
Franz Ferdinand was born in 1863, one of Austria's numerous archdukes before the creation of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. His rise to prominence began early when he inherited a vast estate following the death of a cousin. His future drastically altered in 1889 when Crown Prince Rudolf committed suicide, leading Ferdinand's father to renounce his claim to the throne. This left Ferdinand as the heir apparent—a position he held until his assassination at the age of 50.
Part 3/9:
Despite his noble standing, Ferdinand had few admirers—excluding perhaps his wife, Duchess Sophia, a Bohemian aristocrat whose lack of royal lineage barred her and their children from the throne. This created tension with the aristocracy and strained their public acceptance. Notably, Ferdinand was an avid hunter, claiming to have killed over 250,000 animals, but his true character remains defined by his strong conservative beliefs.
Part 4/9:
Ferdinand’s views on ethnic groups within the empire were undeniably harsh; he was notably anti-Hungarian and described Serbs derogatorily. His strong Roman Catholic beliefs included the prejudices of the era, which reflected in his disdainful attitudes toward Jews and Jesuits. Despite these controversial views, Ferdinand exhibited deep affection for his wife and was committed to preserving the Austro-Hungarian Empire.
The Assassin: Gavrilo Princip's Ideology
Part 5/9:
Gavrilo Princip was a member of a radical group called the Young Bosnians, which sought to overturn Austro-Hungarian rule in the Balkans. After the announcement of Ferdinand's visit to Bosnia in March 1914, Princip resolved to assassinate the Archduke. He and his associates sought assistance from the Black Hand, a secret society that provided them with weapons and training in Belgrade.
On the eve of his visit to Sarajevo, Ferdinand and Sophia arrived unexpectedly, and the day before their assassination turned out to be a pivotal moment filled with ominous warnings. Despite knowing the threats, they embarked on their journey with little apprehension.
The Fateful Day: Events Unfold
Part 6/9:
On June 28, 1914, on their 14th wedding anniversary, the Archduke’s motorcade encountered chaos. An initial assassination attempt failed when a bomb thrown at their vehicle missed and injured Ferdinand’s entourage instead. Following the incident, Ferdinand altered his plans to visit the injured, but due to a series of miscommunications, the car stopped directly in front of where Princip was standing.
Princip seized the opportunity and fired two shots at close range. Duchess Sophia died instantly, and Ferdinand’s last words, as he cradled her, were a desperate plea: "Sophie, Sophie, don’t die—stay alive for our children." He succumbed to his wounds shortly after.
Immediate Consequences
Part 7/9:
The news of the assassination echoed throughout Europe almost instantly, and within a month, thousands of Serbs were imprisoned in Bosnia, reflecting the subsequent wave of repression. Princip was imprisoned but too young to face the death penalty, symbolizing the tragic turn of events.
Interestingly, even in the aftermath of the assassination, there was little public mourning for the unpopular Archduke. His funeral was brief and sparsely attended, indicating the general sentiment across the empire. Many viewed it simply as yet another incident in the troubled region known as the Balkans.
Miscalculations and Long-Term Implications
Part 8/9:
Perhaps the most astonishing aspect of this assassination was that it achieved the opposite of Princip and his co-conspirators' intentions. Unknown to them, Franz Ferdinand possessed a vision that could have prevented the conflict that would soon engulf Europe. He opposed war with Russia and had proposed reforms that might have included ethnic representation for Slavic peoples within the empire.
By killing Ferdinand, Princip ultimately contributed to the very war that he intended to prevent. The Austro-Hungarian government used the assassination as a pretext to invade Serbia, igniting a conflict that involved numerous global powers and set the stage for a devastating war.
Conclusion
Part 9/9:
The assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand was not merely the act of a young nationalist fueled by resentment; it was a critical turning point in history. It marked the beginning of a catastrophic series of events that led to World War One, reshaping the political landscape of Europe and, by extension, the world. In retrospect, the chaos, misunderstanding, and miscalculations that characterized the assassination served as a reminder of the delicate balance of power in the early 20th century—a balance that would be upended by a single fateful moment.
Part 2/9:
Historically, June 28, 1914, marks a crucial turning point with the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand, an event that unexpectedly lit the fuse of World War I. Despite its significance, Neidell stresses that the broader context involves much more than just this single act, highlighting the significant developments and tensions simmering in Europe before the conflict began.
The Far-Reaching Consequences of the Great War
Part 3/9:
The repercussions of the Great War were immense, reshaping nations and societies around the world. As four major empires crumbled, new nations emerged, and a surge of societal movements—including internationalism and fascism—altered the political landscape. Technological advancements accelerated dramatically during this time; innovations such as tanks and bombers proliferated from earlier developments in automobiles and aeronautics.
The Political Landscape: Nationalism and Rivalries
Part 4/9:
Neidell delves into the geopolitical dynamics of the period, emphasizing the rise of nationalism and the competition between nations as contributing factors to the outbreak of war. He notes the pervasive belief among military leaders and nationalists that war was not only feasible but necessary. This mindset, fueled by waves of revolutionary sentiment and labor unrest, created an atmosphere ripe for conflict.
Germany's Role in European Dynamics
Part 5/9:
The discussion of a "German Europe" surfaces within the sociopolitical context, reflecting on how unified Germany emerged as a powerful nation post-1871. By 1914, Berlin had become the cultural epicenter of Europe, attracting intellectuals from various countries. The prospect of a German-led commonwealth seemed plausible, providing protection and economic benefits. However, underlying tensions with neighboring Austria-Hungary presented formidable challenges.
The Instability of Austria-Hungary
Part 6/9:
Neidell addresses the instability of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, pointing out that its fragmented national identity and poor management were significant weaknesses. The annexation of Bosnia and Herzegovina in 1908 deepened animosities, particularly with Serbia, highlighting the empire's inability to manage its diverse populations. As the empire struggled with internal dissent, revolutionary sentiments were escalating throughout Europe.
The Complicated Alliance Systems
Part 7/9:
The prewar landscape was dominated by a series of intricate alliances, which were meant to prevent war but instead contributed to the escalation of tensions. The documentary outlines the alliances formed between Germany, Austria-Hungary, and Italy, as well as the opposing Triple Entente of France, Great Britain, and Russia. Neidell discusses how these relationships created an environment where a local conflict could escalate rapidly into a global war.
Naval Rivalries and the German-British Connection
Part 8/9:
In a compelling section, Neidell examines the naval arms race between Germany and Great Britain, emphasizing that many Germans admired British institutions. Despite their cultural ties, Kaiser Wilhelm's decision to build a navy to rival Britain was a pivotal mistake that fostered animosity and suspicion. This naval buildup strained relations and made a two-front war against Russia and France increasingly plausible.
Anticipating Questions and Future Episodes
!summarize #history #military #ww1
Part 1/9:
The Prelude to World War I: Tension and Nationalism in Europe
In the summer of 1914, Europe was teetering on the brink of a cataclysmic conflict that would lead to the outbreak of World War I. The continent was rife with cultural animosities, nationalistic fervor, and the complex interplay of alliances, all culminating in the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand. In this article, we delve into the backdrop of these tensions, particularly focusing on Austria-Hungary, the Balkans, and the plethora of interrelated issues that made war seem almost inevitable.
A Fragmented Empire: Austria-Hungary and the Slavic Peoples
Part 2/9:
The Austro-Hungarian Empire was characterized by a myriad of ethnic tensions, particularly among its Slavic populations. A significant turning point came in 1908, when Emperor Franz Josef formally annexed Bosnia and Herzegovina. This controversial move incited considerable resentment in Serbia, a nation that coveted access to the Adriatic Sea but was thwarted by Austrian expansion into territories populated by Slavs.
Part 3/9:
The Slavs were divided among various nations, including Austria, Serbia, Montenegro, and Bulgaria. Many longed for a unified pan-Slavic nation, which stirred nationalistic sentiments throughout the region. The annexation heightened these aspirations and further inflamed anti-Austrian sentiments, especially in Serbia—an emerging nation that had only recently won independence from the Ottoman Empire.
Serbia: National Pride and Internal Struggles
Part 4/9:
Serbia was a young nation brimming with national pride, having gained independence from the Ottoman Empire in 1878. Its motto “where dwells a Serb, there is Serbia” encapsulated its territorial ambitions, which did not sit well with its neighbors, particularly Austria-Hungary. Serbia's goal of uniting the southern Slavs implied eliminating Austro-Hungarian influence, a scenario likely requiring military action. However, with a population of fewer than five million, Serbia could not achieve this ambition alone.
Part 5/9:
Serbia's quest for alliances often alienated potential supporters, especially due to its violent repression of minority groups within its borders, notably Muslims. This created a paradox; while Serbia sought to unify Slavic peoples, it mirrored the oppressive tactics employed by Austria-Hungary against its own ethnic minorities. This volatility made it difficult for Serbia to gain sympathy from other European nations, who were accustomed to reading about the region’s unending violence—murders and political upheaval seemed to be the norm.
The Rise of the Black Hand
Part 6/9:
Political conflicts in Serbia culminated in the brutal assassination of King Alexander and Queen Draga in 1903, executed by army officers, including Dragutin Dimitrijevic, a man who later became a national hero. Dimitrijevic was a founding member of the secret society known as the Black Hand, an organization entrenched in Serbian nationalism and responsible for orchestrating political murders.
By the time World War I erupted, the Black Hand had thousands of members, many of whom were linked to the Serbian military and government. Their militant nationalism found support in the wake of the Balkan Wars, which shaped the course of events leading to the First World War.
The Balkan Wars and Regional Dynamics
Part 7/9:
Before examining the Balkan Wars, it is crucial to understand the context of the Moroccan Crises of 1905 and 1911, which strained relations between Germany and the Entente powers. The crises inadvertently fortified the alliance between France and Britain, while also encouraging further territorial ambitions among other nations.
Italy's conquest of Libya from the Ottoman Empire ignited enthusiasm in the Balkan states, prompting a collective assault against the Ottomans—the First Balkan War. Serbia, Montenegro, Greece, and Bulgaria, supported by Russia, successfully drove the Ottomans from the region. However, this victory was short-lived, as disputes over the division of conquered territories led to the Second Balkan War, with Bulgaria turning against its former allies Serbia and Greece.
Part 8/9:
The confusion and bloodshed of these conflicts left Serbia with increased territory and emboldened its nationalism. By early 1914, Serbia had doubled its size and solidified its position, inadvertently alarming both Austria-Hungary and Germany, who perceived Serbia as a Russian ally with potentially destabilizing ambitions.
The Road to War: June 1914
The intertwined relationships and mounting animosities among nations in Eastern Europe set the stage for a larger conflict. As tensions reached a boiling point, Austria-Hungary found itself at a crossroads. The growth of Serbian power, perceived as a threat to the stability of the empire, pushed Austria to take decisive action, while Russia felt compelled to support its Slavic neighbor to avert any perceived humiliation.
Part 9/9:
And so it was that in June 1914, amidst a web of secrecy, political intrigue, and a group of nationalists prepared to take extreme measures to achieve their aims, Archduke Franz Ferdinand embarked on a fateful visit to Sarajevo, forever altering the course of history.
The myriad nuances and roots of nationalism, territorial ambitions, and volatile alliances in the early 20th century reveal how mankind often stands on the precipice of conflict, propelled by a complex tapestry of history and culture. The Great War was not just about the events of 1914; it was a culmination of years of tension bubbling to the surface, ready to erupt into one of the deadliest conflicts in human history.
Part 9/9:
Concluding the episode, Neidell invites viewers to engage with their curiosity regarding various facets of the war, from economic implications to personal stories of military leaders. As the weekly series unfolds over an ambitious four-and-a-half years with about three hundred episodes, he assures viewers that their questions will be addressed, paving the way for a comprehensive understanding of World War I.
The new series "The Great War" promises to unravel the complex tapestry of events leading up to a cataclysm that reshaped the world, beginning with the roots of conflict and the diverse political currents of its time. Stay tuned for more insights as the series progresses.

LEO 2.0: Revolutionizing the LEO Ecosystem
The recent announcement of LEO 2.0 marks a pivotal moment for the LEO ecosystem, introducing transformative changes to the existing structure while simultaneously addressing future growth. This overview will delve into the discussion surrounding the changes and highlight the implications for LEO's community, utility, and overall value.
What is LEO? A Brief Recap
LEO, launched on July 3rd, 2019, has evolved into a multifaceted platform encompassing various applications, including Inlio, a social media app that democratizes financial knowledge and access. As the flagship app over the past six years, it features functionalities akin to popular platforms, such as blogging, short-form content, and creator subscriptions.
Part 2/7:
The Key Changes of LEO 2.0
At the heart of these updates is the shift from a token economy reliant on inflation to a deflationary model. The primary changes include:
Ceasing Inflation: LEO will stop the habitual minting of new tokens. All users will receive rewards through a new mechanism, dubbed the System Income Rewards Pool (SIRP), which will replace inflationary incentives.
Buybacks Over Inflation: The rewards for authors and curators on Inlio will now come from the profits generated through app services combined with revenue from Leoex; this will no longer be reliant on the inflation of tokens. With a zero-emission model, new tokens will not be issued, enhancing scarcity.
Part 3/7:
A New Reward Distribution: The old block rewards mechanism will be replaced with revenue reinvestment strategies where earnings being generated from Inlio and Leoex will actively buy back LEO tokens from the market, introducing a price-supporting dynamic.
Crosschain Integration: LEO will now be natively integrated as an Arbitrum token, allowing for seamless bridging between various forms of LEO present in different ecosystems, ensuring a fluid and robust transaction model.
The Impact of Deflationary Economics
Part 4/7:
Under LEO 2.0, the primary aim is to transform the utility of LEO from a fungible currency to a valuable asset within the ecosystem. The broader goal is for LEO to become an indelible part of crosschain transactions where its ownership fosters a relationship of long-term value rather than speculative exchanges.
Key benefits include:
Increased Scarcity: As tokens are bought back and burned, the total circulating supply of LEO will decrease, positioning the remaining tokens at a higher potential market value.
Higher Value Capture: By shifting the focus from inflation to buybacks, the aim is to absorb more economic value into LEO, giving holders a compelling reason to retain their tokens.
Part 5/7:
The Role of the Community
There lies a significant potential for LEO enthusiasts to capitalize on the changes brought by LEO 2.0. Community engagement and promotions are vital for the success of Leoex and the entire LEO ecosystem. The introduction of referral programs allows individuals to earn by simply sharing their referral codes, incentivizing the growth of user participation and trading volumes:
Part 6/7:
Educate and Promote: Members of the LEO community should actively engage in spreading awareness about Leoex through social media platforms, using personal stories of success with trading on Leoex and sharing referral codes.
Participate in New Features: Users can benefit from staying informed about and participating in new programs and features rolled out by the LEO team. The more active participants are, the more they can influence the success of LEO.
Looking Ahead: LEO's Future
With the completion of the transition to LEO 2.0 just around the corner, the foundation has been laid for a compelling future. The team is committed to continually refining and enhancing both Inlio and Leoex, ensuring they meet the needs of an expanding user base.
Part 7/7:
The next steps for LEO are not only about sustaining previous successes but building upon them through innovative strategies that enhance the appeal of staking LEO while fostering broader market interest.
In conclusion, LEO 2.0 represents a holistic reimagining of the LEO ecosystem that focuses on sustainable growth, community involvement, and significant benefits for token holders. By ceasing inflation and transitioning to a buyback model, LEO positions itself as an asset to be accumulated rather than spent—paving the way for future developments that promise to captivate both existing supporters and newcomers alike.
I really appreciate my friend for introducing me to this platform.
